Oleksii Danilov, Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, is convinced that Russia must get rid of the colonies it captured in the 19th and 20th centuries because they are already "beginning to unravel."

Quote: "A very straightforward thing has to happen. The Russian Federation must get rid of the colonies it captured in the 19th and 20th centuries.
We have to realise that Russia is one of the few countries that continues to hold on to its colonies in the 21st century. Because when they captured those colonies, they took away people’s languages and traditions. They took away their culture. They colonised them. There are a large number of those colonies of the Russian Federation. They have to be liberated for those people to become free, then everything will be totally different. Then we will see how big Russia really is."
Details: Danilov said that the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria and Tatarstan are decidedly not part of Russia.
"There is research which makes clear which territories have no connection with Russia whatsoever, and do not want to have any connections with it. Why are they losing their minds? They are beginning to unravel, bit by bit," the Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council said.
"Let each person think about their own home. We won’t think about theirs. Our goal is to make the Russians lose their desire to stick their nose into our country, like Pinocchio, once and for all. This is our mission," he added.
