A group of young Russians deliberately provoked and violently assaulted four Ukrainian teenagers in Bremen, Germany.

Federal police were alerted promptly and managed to arrest a 16-year-old Russian, subsequently handing him over to legal guardians.

This incident is part of a series of recent attacks on Ukrainian individuals in different countries, raising concerns about the safety of Ukrainians abroad.

Similar attacks by Russian nationals on Ukrainian individuals have been reported in Poland, Scotland, the Czech Republic, and other locations, which may indicate a disturbing trend of targeting Ukrainians in different regions.

    Depends on how you see on it. Soviet fell 1991, and (new) Russia formed. Putin has been in power since 1999, so…

    Or are you talking about the Russian Empire prior to first World War?
