Konwersatorium im. J.Pniewskiego i L.Infelda

In a situation where the eyes of the world are focused on the heroic defense of Ukraine against aggression of Russia, I will try to answer the question why the Kremlin does not recognize Ukraine as state, and Ukrainians as a nation. I will discuss and outline the history of this country from ancient times to the present: the beginnings of Christianity, the times of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the enslavement and denial of Ukrainian identity under the scepter of imperial Russia, the extermination of the Ukrainian people and the Ukrainian intelligentsia during the Soviet era. Main question remains: why the Kremlin decided to kill Ukrainian nation?
