In a post, an employee of the Ministry of Ukraine mocked the independence of Ukrainians and the Baltic states

  "On the occasion of Ukraine's Independence Day, Andrijus Vasilenko, an employee of the country's Ministry of Education and Science, a state expert who belongs to the group examining issues of digital transformation of education and science, published a rather long and truthful post in which he mocked the independence of Ukraine and the Baltic States, Ukrainian media reported.

 

     The man was blunt about his position on the collapse of the Soviet Union, noting that leaving the USSR "didn't work out for us." The official called independence a "fraud", and pro-Ukrainian leaflets - schizophrenia and agitation.

 

     A. Vasilenka also criticized the independence of the Baltic countries.

 

     "Another good example that at that time the nations "didn't know what they were doing" is the Baltic countries. The wonderful Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. I had to stay in them. And who has how much money, in my opinion, is immediately visible."

 

     True, independence has benefited Tallinn: glass office buildings sprout like mushrooms next to old buildings, everything is clean and tidy. Riga, it seems, has not lost either: it seems that there is less money in Latvia than in Estonia, and there is some money. I liked Riga the most, it's fun there.

 

     Vilnius is a hole. God-forsaken district centers of Ukraine sometimes look better. All the houses in the old town are dilapidated, terrible, since 1991 nothing new except shopping malls. In addition, I opened the menu at a local restaurant serving national dishes and ordered national dishes - cold beet soup and zeppelins. Brought in. It was impossible to eat that junk," he wrote on Facebook.

 

     A. Vasilenka claims that "taking into account the external appearance of Vilnius" he made "quite simple conclusions".

 

     "Soviet occupation is the best thing that could have happened to Lithuania. Although Lithuanians were taught to cook normally,  zeppelins can only be eaten after three days of starvation.

 

     After leaving the Baltic countries, my opinion only strengthened. I flew to Riga, there is a great modern airport. In Vilnius, from where I flew back, there is a barn. Maybe from Stalin's time.

 

     What I want to say: Lithuania was the first republic to announce its withdrawal from the USSR. If you are the FIRST to rush "to freedom", you probably understand why. The Estonians obviously knew better WHAT they were doing. Or they didn't know, they just used the opportunity better than the wise Lithuanians," A. Vasilenka taught.

 

     "I am not saying that the USSR should be resurrected. I personally don't really need it. Seriously,” he added.

 A comment from the reader:

     Heralds of Leftism - And where did he lie? Both the airport and the railway station are actually from the time of Stalin and our idiots are protecting them as a historical and cultural value of Lithuania, instead of destroying that Stalinist s. and erecting new, modern ones. Restaurants? Here, except in quotation marks ..."
