: : : Why do you think that Ukraine cannot potentially behave in time similarly as Russians and Soviets did!
: Y:Well, I have no reason to think so.
: RE: It is too little and has no meaning that “you do not have reason to think so”. Because, there should be such political, economic and military arrangements

Well, Joe, reality need not care what you think it should be. I am sure, the fact that international politics is governed primarily by the law of the jungle is no big news to you.

:
: RE:Yanko, is this YOU, your English?

Sure, I can put my signature under every word of it. Still having problems understanding English, Joe?

: Y:I do not know if there was a special document,..>
: RE: You know that there were documents
Of course, I meant a document proclaiming that 2+2=4.

: RE:YANKO, did you participate in generating of these documents?

No, but I like them.

Don’t you think that this bolshevik culture combined with irrational nationalism is the greatest enemy of Ukraine?

Yes, I do. This has no relevance to the question discussed, though.

:
: RE: This should BOTHER YOU.
If you (Ukrainians) are not capable to handle fairly the Rusyns...

Well, that you (Americans) think that we (Rusyns) are not "handled fairly", does not necessarily mean this is true. That is why this should not bother me.

:
: RE:You are only 22 years old, consequently your chance to meet sizable number of people was limited by time.
However old you are, the second part is true about you, too.

Do you want to tell me that, as one-year old, you have studied the history of Kyievan Rus?

What I want to tell you is precisely what I do tell. Unfortunately, your favorite tactics seems to be to misrepresent my words, in particular, by putting them out of context -- and then attack the product of your imagination. This may me amusing to you, but it surely is annoying to me.

: “Therefore it is YOUR JOB to provide evidence. Good luck.”
: RE::The evidence is that the crest of Carpathian Mountains had been the natural border for 1000 years

Well, I would say for more than that, yet this did not prevent Hungarians from crossing the mountains. Similarly, it did not prevent the principality of White Croats from joinig the rest of Rus. Your "evidence" is not very convincing, Joe.

: Well, it looks like it is YOU who is trying to rewrite history.
: The article was published by Les Kachkovsky ( The Day; #6,Febr. 22, 2000) and not by me.
I meant your claims that Transcarpathia was not part of Kyiv Rus.

: YANKO, YOU ARE THE STANDARD FOR KNOWLEDGE OF HISTORY!!!

Nope, I just think it makes more sense to believe what is written in every history book than something you and only you are saying.
