This writes DT.UA.
The “enlightened French public knows about the Russian Anne – Queen of France; the youngest daughter of our Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise was the wife of Henry I, and made a significant contribution to the development of France, being one of the founders of at least two European dynasties of the Bourbons and Valois, one of which still reigns in Spain”, – said Putin.
The scandalous statement by Putin exclusively for the Russian. This convinced the first Vice-speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Iryna Gerashchenko. She noted that for the Russians, grown in state propaganda, Russia is a synonym of Russia. And most of them have no idea that Yaroslav the Wise Prince of Kiev and Anna Yaroslavna, the wife of the French king Henry I and Queen of France – his daughter. And no relation to Moscow last had.
Gerashchenko emphasized that this “schizophrenia”, the Russian leader has only one purpose – so he is trying to justify to their own people’s aggression and seizure of Ukrainian lands.
