MOSCOW, Jan 1 In an article for the Kiev magazine Den, the publicist declared the Kuban and parts of the Belgorod, Voronezh and Rostov regions to be Ukrainian. Commenting on the words of Vladimir Putin that there are historical Russian territories in modern Ukraine, Grabowski was indignant at Kiev's «silence» and put forward claims to Moscow Referring to unnamed European maps, the author stated that Ukraine existed in the 18th century, but Russia did not. According to him, instead of her, the Russian state on these maps was called Muscovy — this name was used in the West until the reign of Peter I, and later in Europe it was abandoned. Then Grabowski recalled the proclamation of the Ukrainian People's Republic in 1917. On the maps of 1918, its borders differed from the borders of modern Ukraine. 
In Ukraine, they wanted to annex Primorye as an «overseas territory» «Ukraine includes Starodub, Novy Oskol, Belgorod, Valuyki, Boguchar (Belgorod and Voronezh regions. — Ed.) — that is, it goes beyond the Don. Part of the present Donbass is indeed was outside Ukraine «, — he wrote. The publicist accused the Bolsheviks of cutting off Slobozhanshchina from Ukraine, while admitting that part of the Donbass and Taganrog were included in the republic, which was later returned to the RSFSR. Grabowski also announced the desire of the Kuban to become part of Ukraine in 1918-1919, however, according to him, «the whites did not allow this.» The publicist called all of these territories «historical Ukrainian.» «/>Ukrainian diplomat demanded from the West to «destroy» RussiaKiev politicians and public figures regularly come out with aggressive anti-Russian statements. So, the former deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Borislav Bereza urged to wait for political cataclysms in Moscow in order to seize Crimea, and the nationalist Dmitry Yarosh threatened to occupy the Krasnodar Territory, Voronezh and part of the Rostov Region. The writer and philosopher Pyotr Kraluk published several articles in which he made claims to the vast territories that make up Russia. Among them, in particular, Primorye, Khabarovsk Territory, Volgograd and Saratov Regions. Moscow has repeatedly denied statements by Western politicians and the media about the preparation of an «attack» on Ukraine. Sergei Naryshkin, director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, stressed that no invasion was planned. He called such stuffing the malicious propaganda of the US State Department. At the same time, as noted by the presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov, NATO is gradually crushing Kiev.
