The bond between Ukraine and Ohio

Russia continues to attack Ukraine in the air, sea and on the ground. While the world watches, Ohioans with Ukrainian ties — including a large population in northeast Ohio — have special interest in preserving Ukraine as a nation and a culture in the U.S.

Curtis Jackson spoke with Andy Fedynsky, Director of the Ukrainian Museum-Archives in the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland, to discuss first-hand knowledge of the bond between Ukraine and Ohio, and to get more insight into the crisis in Ukraine. Fedynsky is the son of immigrants and was born in a refugee camp. He discusses the Ukrainian Museum-Archives center, the history of the facility and the records it houses, and how much Ukrainian Americans contribute to our state and nation.
