Zelenskyy Debunked Putin's Biggest Historical Myth

A Lesson from the President of Ukraine.

Russia came into existence at a time when Ukraine was already in existence as the successor to Kievan Rus'. This was stated in an interview The Diary Of A CEO Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this.

The journalist asked him to comment on Vladimir Putin’s claim that modern Ukraine was allegedly created by Bolshevik Russia. “Take note: he’s talking about the Soviet Revolution of 1917. That’s ridiculous to anyone. The history of your country cannot begin in 1917,” Zelenskyy noted.

The head of state emphasized that Ukraine has churches that are a thousand years old. They were painted by professional Ukrainian artists.

“Ukraine is the heir to Kievan Rus’. A great state that was very well known, at least on the European continent. With a developed civilization, its own art, its own traditions, and so on. Russia wasn’t even close to existing yet. Russia emerged after Ukraine already existed,” Zelenskyy emphasized.

He added that Putin “cuts all of this out” and “starts with the revolution.” “Why starting with the October Revolution of 1917? Because he’s talking about the history of the Soviet Union, not the history of Russia and not the history of Ukraine,” the president said.

According to Zelenskyy, this is how Putin sends signals to Russians. “Children in schools receive this information. They don’t delve any deeper than that. He’s signaling to them that their life is the Soviet Union, and ‘we’ll return there,’" Zelenskyy noted.

Earlier, Zelenskyy spoke about an unexpected discovery in Russian military equipment.
