Russia destroys Ukraine’s historic heritage, steals rare collections from museums

“Putin wants to destroy European heritage and culture, wipe them off the face of the earth,” Ukraine’s Culture Minister Oleksandr Tkachenko said in early March.

Almost 100 days into the Kremlin’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine, hundreds of cultural heritage sites in the country have been destroyed and thousands of rare historical artifacts have been stolen.

Intentionally targeting Ukrainian culture...

Typical of communists. Everywhere they have ever taken over is the same.

Kyiv City Council has cancelled the decree by Kyiv Rus Grand Prince Volodymyr of the founding of Moscow in 1147.


The city council, is putting itself in the same level as Grand Prince Vladimir?




Edit - Moscow made a threat, and that means something because Russia has the power to hurt Lithuania.

The Kiev city council doesn’t have the power to do anything. They’re the city council. It’s an infantile gesture, in the middle of an existential war that they’re losing.

So they’re going to melt down the statue of Catherine the Great in Odessa? The city she founded?


It clearly needs a BLM statue or perhaps something relating to trans rights.

If Russia touches a NATO nation it will be destroyed faster than you can kiss Putin’s butt.

How the frick do you define intervention? If NATO countries hadn’t been bolstering Ukrainian defenses for these long months, UKraine would be just another piece of the Russian federation.

Billions of dollars in military aid, training and even volunteer soldiers are keeping Ukraine in the war until they can manage to build an offense that will sweep the Russian invaders into the Black Sea.

I’d call that intervention.

Do you know that Ukraine is not a NATO member? I realize you do now, but you clearly did not when you made your post. Also, please remove any and all penis from your mouth, Putin's included.

Even if that poll represented the genuine will of the population, it wouldn't justify Russian actions. Russia (both the RF & the USSR) has signed many international agreements over the years agreeing to respect the territorial boundaries of other nations including Ukraine. If Russia was going to claim the Donbas was its territory, it had plenty of opportunity to do so in 1992 when the Soviet Union fell apart. That ship has sailed.
Screw you Doc( sarcasm). We've been waiting for the French to liberate Baton Rouge/ New Orleans for centuries since they founded these cities and are obviously historically French territories.



Giving any credence to Russian territorial claims in Ukraine is about as weird as France claiming Southeast Louisiana.

Me?

I've posted 1/10 as many times as you in this thread.

I've stated I have no love for Ukraine. I just can't understand why people come in here and lie on behalf of Russia and Putin. He is clearly a murderous thug.

It is just plain shocking to me the way these guys just lap up Putin's jizz....

There is no logical reason for it, other than contrarianism, paid Russian bots, deranged anti-Biden sentiment,,,, Who knows.

Then they come in and call people supporting Ukraine delusional...

It's worth saying that in that hypothetical where the French are appealing to Louisiana's historical Frenchness as justification for French annexation, Louisianians would be going out of their way to affirm their American & non-French Louisiana identities and minimizing their French heritage.

It also bears mentioning that many countries have had glorious pasts, but if you make appeals to a mythic past and past humiliations in order to justify military conquest of past colonies to try to realize those mythic fantasies, take a hard look at that country for other signs of being fash.
