    Sorry for jumping the gun there comrade.

    Although Ukraine did exist within the USSR, it was officially called Ukrainian SSR but everyone called it Ukraine, same as Russia was officially Russian SFSR but you wouldn’t say Russia didn’t exist.

      I mean tecnically they were both part of one merged country and didn’t exist as countries, same as Czechia and Slovakia didn’t exist but Czechoslovakia did.

      But I meant Ukraine as in current and WW2 form, Nazikraine if you will.

        Czechia and Slovakia weren’t separate entities the way Soviet republics were.

        Bandera cult is horrific and Banderites get the wall, but calling the whole country Nazikraine is really shitty, especially considering all the death and destruction brought on Ukraine by Western meddling and coups and local compradors. Do better.

          Current Ukraine is definitely a fascist rump state considering not only militant nazis, but also all the monuments, museums, busts, streets etc of some of the worst people from Eastern Europe in history all over the country.
