A Russian Plan for the Genocide of the Ukrainian People
Revised and annotated by Susan Smith-Peter, Ph.D., from the earlier translation by Mariia Kravchenko.
The following article contains a Russian plan for the genocide of Ukraine. It was published by the state-run news agency RIA Novosti, whose works are often picked up by various media outlets. The author, Timofei Sergeitsev, has been a columnist at RIA Novosti since 2014 and worked as a political consultant for Leonid Kuchma, the former Ukrainian president, during the 1999 presidential elections, as well as for former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych during the 2004 elections that led to the Orange Revolution. The publication and the source show that this is not a fringe statement but an expression of a widely-held view.
In the article, Sergeitsev lays out a plan to commit genocide in Ukraine. Echoing Putin, he denies that the Ukrainian people have a separate existence. He brands any expression of Ukrainian politics, history, culture, language or thought as Nazi. All those who took part in the Ukrainian military or government should be liquidated and those that cannot be, will be sentenced to forced labor to rebuild the infrastructure Russia destroyed. The territory will no longer be called Ukraine and the use of the Ukrainian language, it is strongly implied, will be forbidden, as only Russian-approved materials will be allowed in schools and in public. Western Ukraine may exist as a rump, neutral state, but it will not be allowed to be Ukrainian or to use Ukrainian symbols and will be under constant threat of invasion from the former eastern Ukraine, which will be divided up into provinces and directly annexed to the Russian Federation. For the bulk of the Ukrainian population, “a just punishment … can only be possible through bearing the inevitable hardships of a just war against the Nazi system,” he writes. He expects this process will take a generation.
