Meanwhile actually the most of them are actually of polish or Russian origin. Only because Ukraine occupied those territories, that doesn’t make the local people there Ukrainian! Wozniak is polish for example!
Wozniak himself says that he is Ukrainian. This is the same situation as the scientist George Shevelov. He called himself a Ukrainian of Russian-German origin. And the same Bulgakov defined himself as Russian, although he was born in Kiev. In controversial moments, self-identification has a key role.
@@lucasworktv Controversial moments appear in multinational families when there is a choice between nationalities within the family. Self-definition usually comes from the context of what culture you were raised in and what the person himself will lean towards. So, sorry, it isn't that easy as said "I am German because I want to be." 😂
