Russian president Putin published his next article “On historical unity of Russians and Ukrainians”. He claims in his article, Russians and Ukrainians are “the same nation”, denying Ukrainian sovereignty and the very existence of Ukrainians. It’s another step for the next war.

Putin publishes a completely deranged article about Ukraine, reinforcing his well-known claim that Russians, Ukrainians and Belorussians are "one people" with new ominous references to the need to protect "our historical territories." Highly disturbbing.
