And there I was, silly me, thinking that SU collapsed because of the Aug. 19 putch. Russian Independence Day- quite a curious holiday- who did it set itself free from?
Ukraine and Baltics boykotted? BHAHAHA:))))))You proved my point that Wikipedia is just someone propaganda verison of history:).
That's what I also know. Baltics and Ukraine didn't attend and didn't sign the new agreement. Share the russian version with me.
DOn't change our subject now. We talked about who left USSR firrst Russia or Ukraine.
There was also something in 1990, can't recall at the moment.
Who are you kidding? Even now majority of Russians want Russia to be with Ukraine. (BTW 90% of Ukrainians said no) I've read Kravchuk's memoirs some months ago about the events leading to the breakup and him signing the CIS agreement which was to make CIS a pointless organization, exactly what Ukrainian side insisted on.
Even now majority of Russians want Russia to be with Ukraine.==
WHat do you mean "To be with"? It is very fine question isn' it?
As far as I know no majority of russians wants united state with Ukraine.
Because it means the subsidies to Ukraine.
No russians want to support ukranian ecomonics by russian resources.
Every russian today for equal europian prices for oil and gas for Ukraine and everybodies else. Because it is profitable for russin economics. It is money works sir.
Russia much better buy cheaper chinese products then expensive ukranian products for money which Ukraine will pay Russia for oil and gas.
So you are very mistaken if you think that russins want "to be with Ukraine" in common state. No way:)).
But of cause russians want to hold good relations with Uraine wince they are brothers. That is all.
