Liverpool student 'angry' at family's support for Russian invasion of Ukraine

A Russian student in Liverpool is angry at the views of his family about the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Third year aerospace student Denis Skyrban, 20, tries to avoid news and politics as much as possible, but conversations about the current war are hard to avoid

Denis comes from Crimea, a region once home to a majority Crimean Tatar population that was displaced by deportations and the migration of Ukrainians and Russians into the region. Its disputed ownership between Ukraine and Russia since the latter annexed it in 2014 is in many ways a precursor to the current Russian war of invasion in Ukraine.
