In your opinion.
My sister made the mistake once of telling a friend , in front of my Ukrainian grandmother, that we were Russian.
BIG mistake.
Besides, it shows a gross level of ignorance on your part of their language, customs, culture, and tradition.
The Ukraine is no more Russian than the Brits are American.
The better analogy isn’t Britain; it’s Texas. Is Texas American?
Then everyone could go home and stop yammering.
There is so much good in the worst of us,and so much bad in the best of us,
that it ill behooves any of us
to find fault with the rest of us.
