At one of the former border crossings on the border of Belarus and Ukraine, a recording is being played in Ukrainian, in which a female voice says that “Belarusian and Ukrainian borscht have a lot in common,” but “there is nothing like that in European cuisine.” The voice on the recording suggests the Ukrainian border guards "to go over to the side of Belarus when they have nothing to cook borscht from."
In response to this entry, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine published a message stating that Belarusians used a knife to cook their borscht, which they stabbed into the backs of Ukrainians:
“Recently, you mentioned the similarities between Belarusian and Ukrainian borscht with minor differences. However, as usual, you are wrong. Your borscht is very different from ours. Because now Belarusian borsch is more like Russian cabbage soup, even if you add more potatoes there. It is not at all the same as it was before the moment when you used a knife to prepare it, which you plunged into the back of the Ukrainians.
It's a shame to have neighbors who, speaking of some kind of identity and kinship, tend to be slaves and have nothing to do with us.
Forever fix in your memory and in your cookbook that Ukrainians are a freedom-loving nation. We are always fighting for our independence. You are not capable of this and have been in captivity of one tyrant and one bunker grandfather for many years.
So your current potato brew, which is similar in texture to a prison gruel, is by no means similar to our Ukrainian borscht. We are not slaves to taste your borscht.
We advise you to change the "ingredients" and become a free people, not forced prisoners. And before that – eat yourself, do not choke, ”the response of the border service of Ukraine says.
