In Ukraine, school textbooks are rewriting the history of Cossacks. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Sputnik Kazakhstan.
The second part of Kirill Orlov's documentary project "Qyzyq Tarikh" explains how this is happening. It raises the question of why Khmelnytsky should be shown as a fighter for an independent Ukraine, and Mazepa as a national hero.
It also discusses what the "core of Ukrainian identity" is. The project focuses on how the history of Cossacks is being rewritten in educational materials.
