Sorry, I'm not a native speaker. What do you mean by "It's just Ukraine now". Was it always just Ukraine or hast that changed recently?

Edit: But thanks for the information :)

When people say "the Ukraine" it is taken to refer to Ukraine as a region rather than a country. I'm not 100% on why but the wording matters a lot.
