Ukraine and Europe Were Always Friends
#Ukraine and Europe were always friends. In 988 Prince Volodymyr converted #Kyiv Rus to Christianity and decided we need to join the EU. We stand for this idea today and defend Europe from Russian cruelty.
A screenshot of a post from the MFA of Ukraine claims that Ukraine and Europe have always been friends, tracing this relationship to Prince Volodymyr’s conversion of Kyivan Rus to Christianity in 988. The joke is a satirical or propagandistic historical reinterpretation that humorously projects modern EU membership aspirations onto medieval history and frames Ukraine as defending Europe from Russia.
