    Not a fan of Putin's Greater Russia foreign policy but this sort of trolling doesn't seem like the proper response.https://twitter.com/USEmbassyKyiv/status/1496115593149358081 …

        isn't...that tweet kind of the point of why Putin is doing what he wants to do?

        Opposite. It would justify Ukraine invading Russia though under Putin’s theory of just war.

        Not their fault Putin can't take a (really good)joke. The internet has won the culture war

        It's a reflection. They're showing how, while Putin claims that Ukraine is nothing more than the creation of Soviet bureaucrats, the nation and area have hundreds of years of history. Something which is 100% historical fact.

        It's a great point. "Russian" history is not only a myth, but an inversion. Ukraine is not Moscow's little brother.

        From a messaging perspective, it seems effective in countering Putin's speech, especially to allies and would-be allies.

        No because you’re never gonna win a debate with Putin. It is in Putin’s advantage for us to talk about the history of changing boarders everywhere and the complexities of history.

        Putin would want nothing more than for everybody everywhere to discuss every border and history.

        "all borders should be based on ethnic and cultural history" is not a recipe for global peace
