@ruin1619 What exactly are you trying to prove here? All European peoples have common ancestry in some form or another, or share cultural traits, like language. English is by far the dominant language spoken by the Irish and the Scots, but I dare you, try to convince an Irishman or a Scotsman that they're English. If you're insistent, you'll find yourself beaten black and blue. Likewise, go to the Netherlands or Northern Belgium, and claim that the locals are Germans. They're certainly Germanic, speak a West Germanic language, and will readily admit to both, but they're none too pleased if you call them Germans. Again, if you're insistent, you'll do yourself an injury.
No-one likes to be lorded over by an entity that they consider foreign. The Ukrainians have established the latter beyond any reasonable doubt by forcefully resisting all attempts by Russia to subdue them.
So, you are the ignorant one here. And if you're unsure about your own national identity, don't project your insecurities on the Ukrainians, or anyone else for that matter.
