Personally, I wouldn't mind if Poland took back a part of Ukraine on the right (west) bank of the Dnieper river. I have a strong inclination to think that they wouldn't mind either (remember, "Polska od morza do morza" is still on the agenda, while there is no more Russian Empire to kick some asses). And no, I don't mean that what's left should go to Russia, God forbid that. Since right now Ukraine looks more like a failing state being governed directly and financed through the IMF by Washington, DC...

In other words, no Ukraine, no Ukrainian local board, as simple as it could possibly get

I don't think there's much love between Poland and Ukraine after the massacres in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia.

I know about those events but this is not a Politics&Society thread to discuss them here

There might not be great love between Ukrainians and Poles after all, but basically this discussion started with some dude claiming that the so-called Ukrainian language is much closer to Polish than Russian. This is highly debatable since I see many Ukrainians posting and even advertising their services in the Russian subforum here but I have yet to see anyone of them massively posting in the Polish one (yes, I checked)

I have no idea why a Russian votes against an Ukrainian board

Who do you refer to?
