Ukraine and Russia share a common language and history, but, as Chess grandmaster @garrykasparov.bsky.social explains, one chose democracy while the other embraced dictatorship. That difference defines today’s war.

And actually”they share a common history” is also misleading. Ukraine spent much of its history under the control from if non-russians. It has been Polish, Swedish, Lithuanian…and independent. It only came under Russian control in the 1800s. The headline is junk.
Ugh. Ukrainian and Russian are different languages. Just like French and Spanish are. Please revise that!
They don't share a common language; some persons are bilingual Ukranian and Russian.
