The Russians have nothing to do with Yaroslav the Wise and his daughter, Princess Anna; Moreover, Russia stole the name of its people from Ukraine.

Such a statement to the "Observer" was made by the head of the department of the Institute of History of Ukraine NASU Stanislav Kulchytskyi.

Commenting on the last statement of Russian President Vladimir Putin during a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron about "our beloved prince Yaroslav the Wise and his daughter Anna," the historian noted: "Putin once again said a lie. In fact, at the time when Princess Anna lived, there was neither Moscow nor Russia ".

"It was a Russian princess," Ruska "- with a soft sign," - explained Kulchytsky.

"Modern Russians even stole the name of the people from us. They have nothing to do with these historical characters, "he said..

As the "Observer" wrote, Russian President Vladimir Putin during a joint press conference with the French president said that Yaroslav the Wise was a "Russian prince". In addition, he remembered his daughter Anna Yaroslavna, who was the queen of France, also assuring that she had a Russian origin.
