Fortunately, Slovaks have been displaying less respect towards Het mans. Slovaks like Rusyns, they are not kozac koho rodu . Already we are reaping the benefits from our benefactor. Why can't those poor Rusyns in Ukraine understand that it is better to be a national minority than a nation. This is an excellent question but it should be first of all addressed to Ukrainian nationalists.
Problem is how to explain it to the nationalists.
I fully agree with you. Just take the recent visit to Poland of young Ukrainian journalists from Kharkiv. The Polish moderator had to explain them the meaning of Ukrainian words and translate it into Russian. Or take the problem with IMF, Lazarenko, Zherdickij, Gongadze, natural gas and oil from Russia, Patriarchat of Moskovy, not speaking about such problems as AIDS, tuberculoses, life expectancy etc. The list is very long.
