Ukrainians demand to move the geographical border of Europe from the Urals to the Don
Kyiv, November 13 (PolitNavigator, Mikhail Ryabov) - The true border between Europe and Asia runs along the Don, not the Urals. Modern maps are the result of Peter the Great bribing German geographers.
This was stated in an interview with the Kyiv newspaper “Den” by the head of the Luhansk Ukrainian nationalist organization “Prosvita” Vladimir Semistyaga, who left Donbass after being captured by the militias.

“Geographically it’s true. But who set this border? It was established in the XNUMXth century by Peter I, bribing the German explorer Humboldt. I, as a historian, then have a question - if Muscovy was in Europe, why did it need to cut a window into this Europe? This means that they were not in Europe, but in Asia. Then where does this border lie? It ran through the Don for two thousand years,” he said.
“Beyond the Don there is a wild steppe, and it is clear why these Don Cossacks are so bloody and cruel... Now many niches are occupied by these Asians, or more precisely, Finno-Ugric people,” says a representative of Prosvita.
The activities of Prosvita are financed from the state budget - every year deputies of the Verkhovna Rada approve the corresponding expense item.
