Not really. The Rurids essentially ceased their existence upon the arrival of the Mongols, except in Novgorod, which subjected itself to suzeranty and payment of tribute.

The Ruids, as you call them, were the foundation stone for the Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Russian cultures & nationalities.

Nothing I have said should be interpreted as me being for or against the Russians or the Ukrainians.
