An episode from the History of Ukraine — Эпизод из истории Украины

I’d like to tell you about one of the episodes from the history of Ukraine. During the war of independence of the Ukrainians in 1648-1654 the leaders of the war realized that without the help of military Russia the complete victory over Poland was impossible. That’s why in 1648 Bohdan Khmelnytsky appealed to Russia with the request to admit Ukraine as a part of Russia. The tsar’s government started to give some military and economic help to Ukraine. In 1654 Khmelnytsky came to Pereyaslav, where he met Russian embassy headed by boyarin Buturlin. General Rada was convoked in the city square. All layers of the population participated in it. Khmelnytsky in his speech at Rada explained the necessity of the union of Ukraine and Russia. All the participants of Rada vowed fidelity to Russia. Buturlin handed to Khmelnytsky the order tsar’s about the consent to admit Ukraine. Political and judicial status of Ukraine was определено by the terms of the treaty —

so called March articles. Khmelnytsky vowed fidelity in the cathedral. The population vowed in their towns and villages. Economical, political and cultural relationships promoted the union. This union weakened the political role of Rech Pospolita, and defeated the plans of Vatican to catholicize Ukraine. It assisted the further development of Ukrainian people.

Эпизод из истории Украины

Мне бы хотелось рассказать об одном из эпизодов в истории Украины. Во время войны за независимость украинского народа в 1648-1654 годах военачальники поняли, что без военной помощи России окончательная победа над Польшей невозможна. Поэтому в 1648 году Богдан Хмельницкий обратился к России с просьбой принять Украину в ее состав. Царское правительство начало оказывать военную и экономическую

помощь Украине. В 1654 году Хмельницкий прибыл в Переяслав, где встретился с российским посольством во главе с боярином Бутурлиным. На городской площади Переяслава была созвана общая совет. В ней участвовали все слои населения. В речи на совете Хмельницкий объяснил необходимость воссоединение Украины с Россией. Все участники совета поклялись в верности России. Бутурлин вручил Хмельницкому царский указ о согласии принять Украину в состав России. Политическое и правовое положение определялось условиями договора — так называемыми Мартовскими статьями. Хмельницкий дал клятву в соборной церкви. Население принимало присягу на местах. Экономические, политические и культурные связи способствовали воссоединению. Это объединение ослабило политическую роль Речи Посполитой и разрушило планы Ватикана повернуть Украину в католичество. Оно способствовало дальнейшему развитию украинского народа.

Епізод з історії України

Мені б хотілося розповісти про один із епізодів в історії України. Під час війни за незалежність українського народу в 1648-1654 роках воєначальники зрозуміли, що без військової допомоги Росії остаточна перемога над Польщею неможлива. Тому в 1648 році Богдан Хмельницький звернувся до Росії з проханням прийняти Україну до її складу. Царський уряд почав надавати військову й економічну допомогу Україні. У 1654 році Хмельницький прибув до Переяслава, де зустрівся з російським посольством на чолі з боярином Бутурліним. На міській площі Переяслава була скликана загальна рада. У ній брали участь усі верстви населення. У промові на раді Хмельницький пояснив необхідність возз’єднання України з Росією. Всі учасники ради заприсяглися у вірності Росії. Бутурлін вручив Хмельницькому царський указ про згоду прийняти Україну до складу Росії. Політичне і правове становище України визначалося умовами договору — так званими Березневими статтями. Хмельницький дав клятву у соборній церкві. Населення приймало присягу на місцях. Економічні, політичні і культурні зв’язки сприяли возз’єднанню. Це об’єднання послабило політичну роль Речі Посполитої і зруйнувало плани Ватикану обернути Україну в католицтво. Воно сприяло подальшому розвиткові українського народу.
