as i have pointed out on this board in the past
THE ukraine is not the NAME of a country
it is a DESCRIPTION of the region
in slavic languages, THE ukraine
translates as "the stolen land"
or "the land of thieves"
in this telegram post
vladimir rogov of the former ukraine now russian Zaporizhzhia Oblast confirms this
TRANSLATION:
Members of the sect of political Ukrainianism sincerely believe that “Ukraine comes from the word “steal.”
