The first defenders of the modern Ukrainian state Ukrainian freedom were the Zaporozhian Cossacks. Cossacks are fiercely proud of our Orthodox Christian faith and many of our traditions, institutions and holidays are routed in this faith. 2/12 
The first and most important point to understand is that this is not the final agreement - this is a framework agreement in which other, more comprehensive agreements will be built. Details about security guarantees, and the size of the US stake are not addressed. 2/15 
Taras was born in the village of Moryntsi in Kyiv region. Born into serfdom and orphaned by the age of 12, Taras endured a number of hardships working as an assistant. He was often beaten for "wasting time" painting and drawing. 2/20 
Petro was born in Kulchytsi Ukraine around 1582 to western Ukrainian nobility. From 1592 to 1598, he studied at the Ostroh School in Volhynia. Ostroh was a major center of Ukrainian Orthodox faith and formed his core beliefs - including desire to join the Cossacks. 2/21 
The early slavic peoples of the fourth and fifth centuries AD were the first to create a proto type version of borsch made of Borschivnyk (hogweed). This is also the linguistic origin of the word borsch (which meant hogweed). 2/14 
The heroic fighters of the 93rd Brigade bear the name "Kholodny Yar". Today we will dive into why this is such an honour and what it means to Ukrainians and our fight against the muscovites. 2/13 
Lesia had a long lineage of Ukrainian patriotism. She was born in Zviahel, Vohlynia in 1871 and was the second child of Olha Drahomanova-Kosach aka Olena Pchilka. Olena was a writer herself and the sister of Mykhailo Drahomanov, a Ukrainian historian and ethnographer. 2/16 
In my opinion, Svyatoslav embodies the Ukrainian soul more so than other Rus rulers. He was the first ruler to have a Slavic name (meaning holy glory) rather than norse. In contrast with his mother Olga, he continued to worship norse and slavic pagan gods. 2/12 
Wilhelm was born in present day Croatia in 1895 and was the youngest son of Archduke Karl Stephan and Archduchess Maria Theresia, Princess of Tuscany of the Hapsburg monarchy. 2/17 
To say that "Ukraine banned the Orthodox church" is as palpably absurd as saying that Italy banned the Catholic Church. While Ukraine is a nation that supports the beliefs of all faiths - Orthodox Christianity is absolutely inseparable from Ukrainian history and identity. 2/23 
This is what russia does to OUR Orthodox Church: 
During the time of Kyivan Rus, Kursk was part of the Chernihiv principality. It is first mentioned in the Lavrentiyiv Chronicle in 1095. From the 11th century onward, it was one of the most important border fortresses protecting Rus from outside attacks. 2/14 
Freemasonry is a fraternal secret society that originated in Europe in the 14th Century. To many it is a social network with likeminded people. To others a secret cabal that controls the world. To authoritarian regimes, it was the source of dangerous liberal ideology. 2/16 
The Crimean Tatars are descendants of various different peoples who inhabited the Crimean Peninsula. In particular the Cumans, Huns, Pechenegs, Greeks, Alans and Goths. But it is in the 13th century where the ethnic population became predominantly Turkic. 2/19 
The Ancient Greeks established colonies all over ancient Europe. Ukraine was also the site of several ancient Greek colonies and cities. The oldest Ionain Greek colony in Ukraine was at Berezan Island established in the 7th Century BC. 2/17 
From the early 1st century AD, Ukraine was inhabited by various peoples including the Scythians (I will write about in a later thread), the Sarmatians and even the Celts. By the 3rd century AD, a new Germanic people, known as the Goths came to dominate the Ukrainian Steppe. 2/17
The foundations of the Ukrainian state were established by the Hromada, formed in Ukraine shortly after the Crimean War. In Hapsburg ruled Ukraine, in 1848 during the Spring of Nations, Ukrainians formed the Supreme Ruthenian Council whose goal was autonomy for Ukraine. 2/19 
Modern russia is a kleptocracy, not only economically and politically. Every aspect of its history has been stolen, covered up or misappropriated. Even the name "russia" is a 16th century heist of "Rus" which Ukraine is the rightful inheritor 2/16:
Not only has russia misappropriated the historic and cultural legacy of Rus, it has stolen the name Rus itself in an attempt to justify its imperial ambitions in Ukraine. Navigating through this stolen history will reveals why muscovy has sought to destroy Ukraine. 2/22
