ER Editor: As author Thierry Meyssan (owner of Voltaire Network) remarked in another piece we published,
On July 21, 2021, President Zelensky promulgated a law on “indigenous peoples”. It recognizes the enjoyment of human and civil rights and fundamental freedoms only for Ukrainians of Scandinavian or Germanic origin, but not for those of Slavic origin. This is the first racial law passed in Europe in 77 years.
See this report from Qirim News of July 2021, which slants the law as a favour to indigenous peoples:
Law recognizing Crimean Tatars as indigenous people comes into force in Ukraine.
Whereas this terse TASS report from the same week recognizes what is actually happening:
KIEV, July 22. /TASS/. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky signed the law ‘on indigenous peoples of Ukraine,’ which denies this status to ethnic Russians, Zelensky’s press service announced Wednesday.
“President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky signed the law № 1616-IX ‘On indigenous peoples of Ukraine,” which the Verkhovna Rada passed on July 1, 2021. The document is aimed at maximum protection of cultural, informational and other rights of indigenous peoples,” the announcement says.
It’s pretty clear that ethnic Russians, largely found in the Donbass region, have been left high and dry repeatedly. Including the way the international community ignored the Minsk Agreement of 2015, which was designed by Putin to give ethnic Russians in the Donbass autonomy and protection while remaining within Ukraine territory.

Ukrainian racial law

Historically, Ukraine has two origins, one Scandinavian and the other Slavic. Groups that define themselves as “Ukrainian nationalists” do not defend Ukraine as a nation, but oppose anyone of Slavic origin.
While the Ukrainian population normally speaks both Russian and Ukrainian, but often also Hungarian (or Magyar), since September 1, 2020, the use of any language other than Ukrainian is strictly prohibited in public administrations and schools. Russian and Magyar language schools were closed, prompting official protests from Russia and Hungary.
On July 21, 2021, President Volodymyr Zelensky signed the Law on “Indigenous Peoples of Ukraine.” It stipulates that only Ukrainians of Scandinavian origin, as well as Tatars and Karaites, have “the right to enjoy fully all human rights and fundamental freedoms” (sic), thus depriving Ukrainians of Slavic origin of the same rights.
Ukrainian neo-Nazis widely use Nazi symbols, not only the runic alphabet of Proto-Germanic languages, but also the numbers 14 and 88.
The first refers to the fourteen words of David Lane’s white supremacist slogan: “We must ensure the existence of our people and a future for white children”. David Lane is one of the leaders of the Order, an American terrorist organization. He died in prison in 2007.
The number 88 refers to the eighth letter of the alphabet: HH (short for “Heil Hitler”) and the initials of the Nazi salute.
For example, the group commissioned by the mayor of Kiev and former world heavyweight boxing champion, Vitali Klitschko, to flush out and kill “saboteurs” among Ukrainians of Slavic origin is called C14 (pictured – ER: we’ve provided a collage below. The first 2 pictures show the forcible destruction of a gypsy camp.). “C” stands for the former “Hundred of Svyatoslav” and “14” for their white supremacist ideology.

Thanks for the article, I was not even aware of this angle of the conflict.
You would actually need to know what the Hg(s) of Pripet and Crimean dwelling (historical) Goth’s consisted of to answer this question, since the Germanic ancestry of the Ukrainians (AND Russians) paternally would originate (partially) with not only Viking/Rus, but with migrating Goths.
There is notable historical R1a (dominant in European Russia and Ukraine) among Scandinavian and East Germanic modern/ancient populations, but there is also a modern split in Ukraine that was not known until DNA tech identified the Z93 snp. This separates the Northern Slavic IE population from the historical southern Ukraine peoples, who would require an entire article unto themselves to even begin to describe.
In fact, all IE peoples descend from the same shared historical pool of ‘R1_’ paternal ancestry, meaning that IE Germanic, IE Slavic and IE Celtic all share the same deep ancestral origin. They all historically split off paternally from the Indic ‘R2_’ that you find amongst modern Central Asian / Steppe populations and the conquerors of what is today India, and all share many religious practices, linguistic artifacts, and tech (the wheel), along with the shared DNA.
For instance, the pre-Christian ‘Thunder God’ of the Celts / ‘Taranis’, Slavics / ‘Perun’, and Germans / ‘Thor’, all share the same source origin, but begin to deviate as the related languages diverge (Perun – Taran / Tar – Tor).
While Ukraine has 5% I1a, which likely does come from the Rus period of Scandinavian migrations, this is less than you would find in modern England (about 15%), almost certainly due to the population losses of the Hunnic and Mongol incursions.
Modern Norway paternally has about 25% R1a_, which is paternally dominant in both Ukraine and European Russia, and this Norwegian R1a seems unlikely to be explained by Slavic migrations into Norway, since the trade with the east was largely carried out by what is today Sweden.
Modern Sweden is predominately paternally “Svearish” ‘I1a’ (who conquered the Goths / Geats) and only 16% R1a_. While the Island of Gotland is still named after the Goths, Sweden is named for the Svears. The migrating Goths would have likely carried significant R1b U-106.
Russia – like Ukraine – has an incidence of I1a that is elevated in some regions, which likely has the same source as the Ukrainian paternity – as high as 12% of some regional Rus populations –
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2253976/table/tbl2/?report=objectonly
My rough guesstimate would be that if you include all the I1a and (a totally speculatory) 1/3 of the R1a, you could reach 20% of the modern Ukrainian population that could be paternally descended from Svears or Goths – when you assess the nearly 9% R1b_ component, if this turns out to be partially U-106, this could also be Gothic. A reasonable population ceiling would be no more than approx 25% Svearish or Gothic.
In reality – in my view – it does not factually matter either way, because the modern Slavic Russians would =/= Ukrainians at the population level,
and all of this R1a, whether from culturally Slavic, culturally Germanic or culturally Scandinavian origin, are all brother lineages, and share the same collective distant origin with each other as well as with R1b, because they are all IE peoples ancestrally.
(This is the Europe Reloaded editor) If you dig into a little history of Ukraine, you’ll find it was a bizarre yoking of two different groups of people, with one side (larger geographically) coming from Poles, Hungarians, etc. ‘Scandinavian’ probably has a larger reference here.
I doubt you’ll find much Scandinavian blood in Ukraine. If you DNA them, they’ll be mostly Slavic, some German.
