Spoken like a patriot.
By the same token, if organ transplanters were Ukrainians first and organ transplanters second, we'd have some wild debates in the surgical room too.
Are we scholars first and then Ukrainians? I think not since if that were the case, we would simply be members of our academic organizations rather than this one. I propose that we are of Ukrainian heritage first then scholars second and as such we should encourage objective debate but not fall away from defending our point of view, our culture, our language and yes, in fact our native country's multi-pluralistic cultures but not at the expense of russophilic goading.
