RU propaganda continues demonising Poland. The Kremlin tries to persuade its own audience that Poland has imperialistic ambitions akin to the ones in Russia and therefore is just as bad as Russia. Examples in thread @TextyOrgUa #GrayZone #AgainstRussianLies
«The concept of Polish foreign policy exists since the Jagiellonian times, since the XIV century. It assumes the expansion to the East, and penetration of Lithuania and Russian lands. Poland regards itself as a leading Eastern European power, a multi-national empire-state».
«Modern Poland builds its historical mythos around the beginning of the war. It poses as a long-suffering victim, caught between the two totalitarian systems. Of course, it regards itself as an honourable and innocent country and capitalizes on its sacrificial status».

we're often addressed by foreign media with questions about the language issue in Ukraine. So quick explainer here. A thread 1/10
yes, Ukrainian is different from the Russian language. In some aspects it's closer to Belarusian and Polish. Russians need a substantial training to understand Ukrainian, and much more training to speak and write. Think of the difference btw Italian, French and Spanish. 2/10
Ukrainian was banned from the public use in the Russian empire for almost half of the century (1863-1905). No literature, theatre performances, cultural events in Ukrainian were alowed. 3/10
