Millster, I don't think Russians lies on the subject at all. If there are mistatements then its in the area of Communists versus Tsarist supporters.Both blame each other for creating the monster of Ukraine and the subsequent problems from the Khokhol nutcases. This can lead to either side making exaggerated statements. There is no lie from any Russian or russian nationalist in debate against Ukrainian nationalist - the ukronazi project lives and breathes on lies and bullshit.milster wrote: ↑Fri Oct 21, 2022 8:37 amThe time is irrelevant, as both Ukrainians and Russians have ancestral claim on it. Also that country is called Kievan Rus, Russia is older than Ukraine nonetheless.
It's however ironic that both sides lie. You seem to think that Russia always lie. Then what about the West? The meaning of truth about everything is lost on them in the last 20 years!!
Even the name "Kievan Rus" ( which it wasn't called at the time of its existence), is claimed to be an invention by Communist historians.
But the point still stands that Pierro is being idiotic. Moscow being just forest during the middle ages as Kiev was an important city, doesn't change the fact that a Russian state was very much in existance then , with the same cities still very much part of Russian Federation now. . Paris wasn't the most important city, in what is now France 1000 years ago - but who cares?
The lunatic Galicia ( western Ukraine) , are predominantly Catholics. These scum causing trouble from there have monopoly of the fake Ukrainian "national identity".They should have NO claim to Kievan Rus.
