  1.  @TheGreySpectrum  "'The Ukraine' implies a disregard for Ukraine's sovereignty." Only in their minds. It's a place and a country. They have no business dictating how Englishmen speak.

  2.  @BenjaminFranz-y5f  I don't know who that is, but "the Ukraine" is a region and "Ukraine" is the country. Sorry if Ukrainians have problems with how English works.

  3. They won't, of course. It's up to Ukraine to defend the KPR and BPR from Russian aggression.

  4.  @BenjaminFranz-y5f  Yes, it can. Russia didn't come up with "the Ukraine." Sorry for your ignorance.

  5.  @TheGreySpectrum  "Why, if you know that "the Ukraine" refers to a region and "Ukraine" refers to the country, do you insist upon defending the usage of "the Ukraine" to refer to the country?" I don't. Why do you think I said that?

  6.  @BenjaminFranz-y5f  A region can have a buffer zone. Sorry you can't parse English. And sorry you can't have a conversation without crude ad hominem comments. Here, have some more.

  7.  @nozhki-busha  It doesn't imply that. That's just how Ukrainians feel. But it's not their language. That about covers it.

  8.  @soccerguy2433  Yeah it is, and obviously Canada is not considered a region, and if you knew something about English you would know where the definite article can and can not go.

  9.  @Think_1234  You can stop arguing the semantics of what a sentient region would be capable of. It's idiotic.
