Ex-Ukrainian FM claims southern Belarus

Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has asserted that southern Belarus historically belongs to Ukraine. In a video statement, Kuleba argued that cities like Pinsk, Mogilev, and Mozyr were historically part of the north of Kievan Rus. He stated that Ukraine would have the right to claim these territories if historical claims were pursued. The remarks represent a significant escalation in historical revisionist rhetoric from a senior Ukrainian political figure.
