18. This is more pro-russky B.S.
Russia didn't start in Kiev, it was started by what are now Ukrainians. The so-called "ties" to Russia started during the occupation by the Russians under the Soviet Union and the forced migration of Russians mostly into E. Ukraine when they industrialized the country (probably because they didn't want the environmental devastation in their own country). The Russians have ALWAYS shat upon the Ukrainians. Take the example of the engineered famine in the 30s that killed millions of Ukrainians, young and old, men, women, children. This sort of bad blood going back many generations makes your analogy about Lincoln trivial and specious. - K
