Galloping Ukrainians owe their appearance to the Soviet Union
The main mistake of the USSR was to grant national republics status.
Political strategist Alexey Sitnikov said this on the Internet channel “Echo of Kyiv,” the correspondent of “PolitNavigator” reports.
According to him, the USSR needed to pursue a policy of one nation, for example, as the Americans did.
“The Soviet Union, once flirting with national elites, made a serious mistake - this is the main mistake of the Soviet Union, this is territorial division along national lines. This, as Bismarck said, is more than a crime, it is a mistake.
The Americans, when they created the United States of America, understood very well that this mistake should not be made, and they have no national division - they are all Americans. There is no state that has a titular nation...
This story that division along ethnic lines, I think, was a mistake. I believe that if there had not been a Georgian ASSR with a Georgian first secretary and a Russian second secretary and a titular nation that occupied all leading positions, and the same in Kazakhstan, the same in Kyrgyzstan, there would have been a Tbilisi region, what a Bishkek region Somehow, then there would not be these tensions due to the fact that the titular nation wants more of its national one. This is what Europe is moving towards now, when they already call themselves Europeans,” said Sitnikov.
