Anti-Ukrainian sentiment is widely present on the territory of the Russian Federation and Ukraine.
History
The Russian-Ukrainian war of 1918 became known in history as the Russian Civil war even though the RSFSR officially recognized the government of the UNR. Later, during the Soviet occupation the population of Podillya and other parts of Ukraine was being slaughtered by the order of Yezhov in 1920's by being called as the nationalists, the anti-revolutionaries, and the enemies of the state (the most popular phrase of Stalin era).
Doctor Vyacheslav Briukhovetskyi found an article of Academician Volodymyr Vernadskyi in the archives of the USSR Academy of Sciences. He believes the article named as The Ukrainian question and the Russian society was written in summer of 1915 in khutir Kovyl Hora near the village of Shyshaky (today Poltava Oblast). Dr. Briukhovetskyi published the article in the magazine "Vitchyzna", #6(1988). In his article Academician Vernadskyi describes and draws a historical analysis of the genocide against the Ukrainian culture. On the other hand Ihor Hyrych criticizes Academician Vernadskyi and portraits him as a big opposer of the national movement when he reviews the Vernadskyi's dairy of 1917-21. Currently, Ihor Hyrych (Ph.D. in History) is the head of the Institute of Archeography of the National Academy of Science in Ukraine has a series of articles published in Zerkalo Nedeli where he criticizes the Soviet historical facts conserning Ukraine.
Anti-Ukrainian sentiment in Russia
See also: Ukrainians_in_Russia § Anti-Ukrainian_sentiment_in_RussiaUkrainians represent the third largest ethnic group after Russians and Tatars in the Russian Federation. In 2006, in letters to Vladimir Putin, Viktor Yushchenko and Vasily Duma, the Ukrainian Cultural Centre of Bashkortostan complained of anti-Ukrainian sentiment in Russia. The Urals Association of Ukrainians also complained of similar problems in a letter they addressed to the OSCE in 2000.
Negative and decidedly anti-Ukrainian attitude persists among several Russian politicians, which is expressed in particular by the Mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov and the Deputy Speaker of the State Duma, Vladimir Zhirinovsky.
In addition, in spite of their significant presence in Russia, according to the Urals Association of Ukrainians, Ukrainians in that country have less access to Ukrainian language schools and Ukrainian churches than do other ethnic groups. In Vladivostok, according to the head of the Ukrainian government's department of Ukrainian Diaspora Affairs, local Russian officials banned a Ukrainian Sunday school in order not to "accentuate national issues".
