It’s that same pride that has Manor College grad Vera Penkalskyj so concerned about the 100,000 troops, Russia has amassed on the border with Ukraine.
“Very angry and frustrated with the situation. It’s unnecessary. The reason Putin wants to claim our history and our land and use the resources for Russia,” Penkalskyj said.Hudyma, who has a brother, aunts, uncles and friends all still living in Ukraine, expressed how they feel about the tension.CBS3 asked both why they think their American friends and our viewers without ties to the region should care about what is and what might happen overseas.
“I think that we take our freedom for granted and I think that we have our everyday lives, and this is what’s being threatened in Ukraine,” Penkalskyj said. “You have to understand we’re all people here. It doesn’t matter what country you come from,” Hudyma said.Both women feel that an invasion of Ukraine would allow Putin to expand west, keep NATO at bay and perhaps allow for future gains in Europe.
