“He said ‘russian’, not Russia.”
Actually, his exact words were: “A lot of Ukraine was Russian 14 years ago when George Soros starts his color revolution and installed his cousin.”
He didn’t say anything about ethnicity, which is what you are implying. Even if what you say was what he intended, it doesn’t change the fact that it was not Russia, it was Ukraine; and Russia invaded an independent and sovereign Ukraine in 2014 and escalated that invasion in 2022. An aggression that – by your posting history — you wholeheartedly support.
Moreover, his dates (”14 years ago”; i.e., 2009) are wrong. The Orange Revolution began in 2004. In 2004 Yushchenko was elected president of Ukraine, and he is not George Soros’ cousin; and neither is Zelensky (a libel reeking of anti-semitism merely because the two are Jewish), who became president in 2019.
It is sad that you don’t see the difference.
You must be yet another foreigner here rooting for the globalist regime.
A lot of things are Russian. Icons, things I bought while there, a scarf I have, and much of Ukraine was very Russian. Not ethnic Russian, but in the sense of language and culture.
He is absolutely correct.
In Ukraine, in the 90s for instance, Russian was widely spoken and books, tv etc in the Russian language were easily found. Russian crosses and icons could be ordered from Ukrainian churches online.
That all changed after we went in and destroyed the bond.
Taught them to hate Russia.
