Halyna Mokrushyna — Novorossiya Is to Eastern Ukraine as Euromaidan Was to Western

An excellent scholars conference on Ukraine was held early this month at the University of Ottawa. 

We've already featured much from there including the lectures given by the Canadian military historianPaul Robinson and James Bisset the former Canadian Ambassador to Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Albania. 

A summary of all the days' lectures has also been produced since. 

We are citing parts of summaries of two other lectures, by Canadian-Ukrainian scholars Olga Ostriichuk and Halyna Mokrushyna that make an important point.
