Work "Partition of Russia" in the biography and works of Yurii Lypa

The modern Russian-Ukrainian war actualized the work with the telling title "The Partition of Russia" (1941) by the Ukrainian public and cultural figure, doctor and writer, historian and geopolitician Yurii Lypa (1900–1944) on the history and prospects of Russian-Ukrainian relations, the past and future of the Russian Empire, and hence the interest in the figure of its author. In "The Partition of Russia", Yurii Lypa categorically insisted on the complete separation of the hostile, spiritually and economically mutually exclusive Muscovy-North and Ukraine-South, which must follow different historical paths for the good of humanity and for world order. He emphasized that each nation, like an individual person, will be able to express itself in the endless struggle with the material and spiritual environment. Only in such a struggle will the natural strength of Ukraine and its value for the peoples of the world be developed. Yurii Lypa did not write about destruction, but about the education and improvement of the Moscow population. He wrote that the point is not to physically destroy 400-500 thousand enthusiasts in St. Petersburg and Moscow who preach oppression, in his opinion, what was needed was the final eradication of the tradition of this oppression and unnatural claims. In his opinion, free labor, property rights, and appropriate legislation were the cures for a distorted worldview. Yurii Lypa emphasized that overcoming nomadic psychology is possible with a return to family traditions, stabilization of the economy, revival of moral authorities. The condition for recovery is the unloading of the imperial Comintern center. And the author also proposed minor surgical measures that will be useful for the population of the Russian lands and the whole world as another step towards the spiritual enrichment of humanity.
