Pereyaslavskaya Rada: commentary by the Head of Crimea Sergei Aksenov in connection with the anniversary
Forever with Moscow, forever with the Russian people.» This is the name of one of the most famous paintings by the Soviet artist, Kiev resident Mikhail Ivanovich Khmelko, dedicated to the Pereyaslav Rada. Today we celebrate the 372nd anniversary of this fateful event. It became a symbol of the reunification of two branches of a single people, divided by the force of historical circumstances.
Today it is very difficult to talk about this date. But we must remember that the reunification of historical Rus’ was a complex, painful and lengthy process. This is a real, not a “glossy”, not a “sleek” story, in which there are not only triumphs and fanfare, but also blood, hatred, deception, betrayal, political intrigue… But there is also a huge desire for truth, which ultimately wins.
According to the Russian historian Lev Nikolayevich Gumilyov, “the choice made on the basis of the natural worldview of the people turned out to be correct.” And this is the most important thing. This was the case in the 17th century, and this is what is happening today when the historical Russian lands return home.
Yes, this is a very difficult path. And to pass it, you need to make a lot of effort, overcome the resistance of strong and treacherous enemies. But Moscow was not built right away. And we will definitely walk this path to unity. Victory will be ourssays the commentary of the Head of Crimea.
