This was a fascinating discussion, including putin's misunderstanding and misrepresenting of Ukraine's russian-speaking Ukrainian patriots. Слава Україні! 🇺🇦 🇨🇦 🇬🇧
Thanks for ur Channel Orest Zub..I was fascinated by ur family history..I had some idea that border's had moved from east to west markedly, but little idea of the population transfer in the late 1940's , between Poland & Ukraine & vice versa...extraordinary!! Again thankyou...
That was an outstanding interview I learned a lot i will be sure to share this to Facebook . I'm a new subscriber if you're other videos are anywhere close to as informative as this one than Sunday will be a day full of learning and that's a great thing keep up the great content Slava Ukraini
Hey Taras - it would be interesting to hear more about the smuggling of press and books into Ukraine in the 80s, who you worked with, who your Polish partners were, etc.

The removal of monuments and replacement of street names was enforced by law. Regional governments that failed to enact the policy faced 5 year prison sentences etc. Some people join far-right battalions and commit war crimes. Post-2014 both sides committed war crimes.
A significant number of Iranian women feel oppressed by theocratic laws/regulations. It's a false equivalence to compare that with geopolitical zones of conflict. 4.5 million people have been killed in post 9/11 war zones; 38 million people have been displaced in, or from, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Pakistan. Not to mention two thirds of the world impacted by sanctions. Madeleine Albright said that, although it was a difficult decision, on balance the death of 500.000 Iraqi babies was worth it.
Early in the video Mr. Kuzio spoke about Russian speaking Ukrainian patriots, and then later discussed how people are now refusing to speak Russian and view it as the language of genocide/aggressor. I think this is a mistake. I understand there’s no rewind button to magically restore relations, but Ukrainians should not forget the loyalty shown by Russian speakers who rejected Putin’s invading forces. I’m afraid that after the war, those speaking Russian would be ostracized. This should not happen. Just like the example you gave in the video of spanish speakers leaving Mexico for the US, or english speakers in Canada, Russian speakers who stood up for Ukraine should not be treated negatively.
There are no so-called russian speakers in Ukraine. Those who speak russian are russified. That’s something different. russian language was imposed by force for more than a century, Ukrainians were oppressed, bullied and even killed for refusing to switch to russian. That’s why all people living in Ukraine and speaking russian should start switching to Ukrainian, the language of their ancestors who suffered for Ukraine and Ukrainian language. russian must be eliminated from Ukraine forever as it was originally.

Haha, as a German I like a lot the beer 'Frau Ribbentrop"
