Don't know how you came to that conclusion- Did you miss the very first word of my post?

It was the use of the word "the" in front of the name. It is considered derogatory towards Ukraine because the name means borderland. When "the" is put in front it implies they do not have government autonomy so I wasn't sure if that was intentional on your part to call them a Russian borderland.

Well wasn't tracking that, I guess I always used that language and never changed after Ukraine became independent.
