UN, 12 May.Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzya spoke at the organization's Security Council about the educational programs of modern Ukraine and asked the French Permanent Representative Nicolas de Riviere if he knew about his Ukrainian roots. As confirmation of this unexpected circumstance, the diplomat referred to the Ukrainian geography textbook for the eighth grade. 
The Russian Guard found textbooks with Nazi propaganda in the Kharkov region. He demonstrated to the audience a textbook on geography for the 8th grade edited by Maslyak and Kapirulin. “If you believe him, then the ancestors of the French, Spaniards, Portuguese, Turks and even Jews came from Ukraine. I want to turn to my French colleague. Nicolas, did you know that you are actually Ukrainian? Don’t believe me? Read the textbook,” Nebenzya said The authors of the manual explain this by the fact that the ancestors of the French, the Gauls, came from Galicia. The diplomat cited this detail as an example of the total Ukrainization of the educational process, which is being handled by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. He added that in 2016, this department «taking into account the historical events of recent years» approved 25 training programs.Expert: Refugees from Ukraine come with distorted views on history Belarusians in this textbook were attributed to the Baltic peoples.
«The history textbook of Ukraine for the 7th grade, edited by Lyakh and Temirova, says that the formation of the Ukrainian people is 140,000 years old. The history textbook for the 9th grade, edited by Turchenko and Moroko, states that by the end of the 18th century, Ukrainians in At that time, they were one of the largest nations in Europe,” the diplomat said. He noted that the author of the book “Ukrainian Nation,” Mykola Galichanets, is generally convinced that “the population of Eastern Europe entered the first millennium of a new era under the name of Ukrainians.”
“This is despite the fact that, as you know, no one called the inhabitants of the territories that are part of modern Ukraine Ukrainians. Even in the works of the poet Taras Shevchenko, who lived in the middle of the 19th century, the term “Ukrainians” is completely absent. The inhabitants of all these lands were called Rusyns, Russians or , in extreme cases, Little Russians,» Nebenzya said.The Italian textbook attributed the Baltic States and Ukraine to the Russian region. He also cited other absurd theories from the educational program of Ukraine. «There is, for example, such a historian in Ukraine Valery Bebik (and he is not alone). He claims that Constantinople was a colony of Chersonesus on the territory of modern Sevastopol , and the progenitor of the Scythians is a native of Crimea, Hercules, whose roots come from the island of Khortytsya on the Dnieper,» the permanent representative told the members of the Security Council. , has existed for more than 7.5 thousand years,» Nebenzya shared. According to him, the famous Mongol commander Genghis Khan, who lived in the 12th-13th centuries, according to Bebik, was actually called Bogdan.
Bastrykin instructed to analyze the content of Ukrainian history textbooks»Do not believe? Then the author advises you to familiarize yourself with the secret Oriya of the Mongols, where Genghis Khan is called Bogdykhan. Well, from this it is clear that he is not a Mongol, but a true Ukrainian. Moreover, he fought, as Bebik is sure, with the Ukrainian trident and under the yellow-Blakyt banners. And finally, his main conclusion is that Ukraine in general is the cradle of world civilization, and even Jesus Christ, Bebik does not exclude in one of his interviews, could have been a Galician,” said the Russian envoy. deserved madman».
