		In the last Soviet census, while only 44% of the Donbas region identified themselves as ethnically Russian and 51% identified themselves as Ukrainian, 66% of them identified Russian as their "mother tongue." Herein lies the problem of identifying the size of the Russian group in eastern Ukraine.
		The strike began in the coal-mining Donbas region and spread throughout eastern Ukraine.
		In general, ethnic Russians in the Donbas region are becoming more assertive for their "ethnic rights." Many Russian leaders complain that 70 to 80% of the revenues from the heavy industry in eastern Ukraine are allocated by Kiev, but little of that makes its way back into the eastern oblasts.

		In spite of their evident marginality, the heroes of Marushchenko's Donbas photographs give us a feeling of the multidimensional nature of their existence.

		He thinks that although Donbas is truly of strategic importance to Ukraine, it is developing one-sidedly because local people “are ‘zombified’ by rhetoric of a certain kind; they don’t know about European living standards.” He added that during an interactive live television show only 31 percent of Donetsk residents favored joining the European Union.
		As the Donbas “European hearings” proceeded, Ukraine was advised to send more of its representatives to the EU, where they will learn to conduct business “in the European style” and bring our laws in line with those of EU countries and borrow work experience in many other fields.
		The European delegation said that these contacts managed to convince them that Donbas and other eastern regions do not have a negative attitude to the EU and are prepared to cooperate with it and later become a member with the rest of Ukraine.
