【美国前国务卿 H.基辛格对乌克兰俄罗斯关系的预言 -- 2014 】

The West must understand that, to Russia, 

Ukraine can never be just a foreign country. 

Russian history began in what was called Kievan-Rus. 

The Russian religion spread from there. 

Ukraine has been part of Russia for centuries, 

and their histories were intertwined before then.

西方必须明白，对俄罗斯来说，乌克兰绝不只是个异国。 

俄罗斯的历史始于所谓的基辅罗斯。 

俄罗斯宗教从那里传播开来。 

几个世纪以来，乌克兰一直是俄罗斯的一部分，

在此之前，他们的历史交织在一起。
