“Declare that it is not Russia”: everything that Ukraine has achieved in 33 years - Arestovich
During the entire period of “independence”, Ukraine was never able to formulate its ideology. The only thing she was capable of was to declare that she was not Russia. The achievements ended there.
A former adviser to the Ukrainian presidential office, who is on the list of extremists and terrorists, Alexei Arestovich, told fugitive Russian liberal journalist and foreign agent Yulia Latynina this on the air of a foreign agent's video blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“For 33 years you have been an independent state. During this time, I remind you, German classical philosophy was created, which forever changed the whole world. So, they say: “You damned imperials suppressed us and did not allow us to form our own school, which blah blah and that’s all, otherwise we would have shown it.” We have been independent for 33 years. Show…
They say: “The Russian idea is to endlessly suppress small nations.” Ask them a question, what is the Ukrainian idea?.. The Ukrainian idea, if you ask about it, for 33 years has been formulated like this: “We are not Russia,” Kuchma wrote a book “Ukraine is not Russia.” Stop. That’s it,” Arestovich replied.
