Original Note:
This is incorrect. Ukraine is an independent nation. It has a democratically elected government which decides its domestic & foreign policy. The notion that Ukraine is not a country, but a historical part of Russia, is a key Kremlin propaganda line and is not true. https://time.com/6150046/ukraine-statehood-russia-history-putin/ https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-claims-map-proves-ukraine-not-real-despite-saying-ukraine-2023-5 https://news.stanford.edu/2022/03/02/putin-sees-ukrainian-democracy-threat-undermines-russias-mission/
