“It is Khmelnitsky’s victories over the Poles that are used in modern Ukraine as a justification for the fact that this country already existed in the 17th century, which, of course, is not true. Residents of western Russia began to be called Ukrainians only at the very end of the 19th century. Austria dreamed of tearing away the western territories of Russia, so they decided to invent a new state there with its own people. That’s how they designed “Ukraine,” Zhirinovsky explained in his telegram channel.
He called modern Ukraine an “artificial heap.”
“Russian, Hungarian, Romanian, Polish lands. The name of the main square of the country - Maidan - generally comes from the Turkish word “midan”, which is translated as square. They took it from the Crimean Tatars. Look who the main heroes of today's Ukraine are - those who betrayed Russia over the years. Mazepa is a hero because he betrayed the Russian Tsar. At the same time, by the way, the “yellow-blakit” flag appeared. This is just a piece of the Swedish flag, it was attached to the clothes of these Cossack women who betrayed the Russian Tsar, in order to distinguish them. Or Bandera and Shukhevych - both betrayed the Soviet Union, killed Russians,” Zhirinovsky wrote.
