RETHINKING - DECEMBER 7, 2022 - UKRANIAN IDENTITY

 
Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, with frequency, President Putin said that Ukraine had not an identity. In his declarations, he repeated and repeated that Ukraine is Russia.

After the assault on its neighboring country, Russian troops are going against the civilian population, destroying homes of elders, women and children, and the infrastructure of the cities.

But this is not all!. Putin's soldiers also assault museums and schools, destroying Ukrainian literature and art. As we see, it looks like Moscow's order is the annihilation of all that the troops don't steal.

 About this subject, The Wall Street Journal posted a story titled: “Russians Systematically Loot Art, Ancient Relics from Ukraine’s Cultural Sites” by Ian Lovett

In the introduction of this story, the author wrote: “Moscow’s attacks on Ukrainian museums and theaters are part of a broader assault on national identity”.

My opinion posted in the blogger section of the WSJ Online:

“The attack on museums, theaters and schools is always a barbarian act. Vladimir Putin is acting like the Barbarians who destroyed complete civilizations across History.”
