And of course it's Ukraine was made by Lenin
How can russian propaganda be so stupid, all their fakes easy to check now
Genuinely impressed. I didn't think anybody could be dumb enough to make El major look like Einstein - but you have managed to achieve that.
1. Construction methods allowing for Gold domes at height, did not exist in 1011, 1070 or 1100's, bozo - what you see for the 3 of those churches photographed that still exist is how they look NOW, and has NO connection at all to 1011, 1024 or any of those years in the 11th and 12th century, idiot! What next? More photoshopped crap showing Ukronazis driving Lamborghinis in the year 3500 BC?
2. Greater than that - the 3 standing cathedrals only look like that now because of RUSSIAN TSARIST period, when they were constructed like that by signed order of the Tsar, LOL. All the 3 existing churches only look like that AFTER reunification of Russia with the Russian lands of what is now called Ukraine since 1654. They are RUSSIAN churches.
3. Beautiful churches started being built in Moscow a century after that in the last photo you showed. But so what if Moscow was not settled for a few centuries after? The most iconic and beautiful churches were built in Pskov, Vladimir, Suzdal, Kostroma , Novgorod and in other parts of Russia right at the start of Russian state from the late 800's onwards,the start of russian civilisation and many even preceding the founding of Kiev. At about the same time in the 11th century , under orders from the same ruler, Saint Sophia cathedrals in Novgorod (Russia), Kiev and Polotsk (modern day Belarus) were built.
4. Maybe the most famous landmark of russian-world, is Saint Basil's Cathedral, Moscow. That was built in 1588 - more than 100 - 200 years BEFORE those churches in your image were built like that.LOL. Even Winter Palace, St Petersburg in its present appearance was built before or at the latest, at the same time as 2 of those churches in your agitprop.
5. Saint Petersburg from early 1700's to 1900s was capital of Russia. It was founded and built before 90% of the towns and cities in Ukraine were founded and built ( by Russians of course, dickhead)

.So, again, what purpose does it serve to comment on how Moscow did or didn't look? And when we have established Saint Basils was built way before the cathedrals you showed
6. The tweet by the scumbag US State Department in Kiev was made at the start of the war, and heavily ridiculed by any russian-speaker who saw it. I think they even deleted it. But it does sumup the sick condition of the mind that is Khokhol nationalism - making up any BS .
7. Kiev was founded as part of the Russian state, by the Russian leader Vladimir the Great - who was from Novgorod, Russia. The whole tweet makes no sense, whatsoever.
