5.2.2010. At In the late 2009 and early 2010, the Ruthenians held a series of online conferences in order to consolidate and involve the Ruthenian public in a joint nation building.

According to him, in blogs and social networks where online conferences are broadcast, take part several thousands of people, mainly inhabitants of Subcarpathian Rus, as well as representatives of the Ruthenian Diaspora in the USA, Slovakia, Serbia and Australia.

According to Peter Gecko, an absolute majority of conference participants agreed on the fact that "a gross violation of fundamental rights of the Ruthenian people by Ukraine, ignoring of acts of anti-Semitism, xenophobia, Ruthenophobia, inciting ethnic hatred by the law enforcement bodies and the extreme right-wing political parties and politicians, such as All-Ukrainian Union "Svoboda" of Oleg Tyahnybok, leaves absolutely no chance for the future of the Ruthenian people as part of both, the unitary and federal or con-federal Ukraine.

"Antagonism of the Ukrainian politicians, the imposition to Ukrainian society of the view that Ruthenians are Ukrainians, and all those who oppose this are separatists, has laid a time bomb. The trial of the spiritual leader of the Ruthenians Dymitry Sidor, and the relentless persecution and discredit of the Ruthenian people and Ruthenian leaders, as well as a stubborn refusal of the Ukrainian politicians to include the "Territory of the Ruthenians to the south of the Carpathians" - former Transcarpathian region of the Ukrainian SSR - into the Ukrainian legal framework , and to include the results of the Transcarpathian Regional referendum of 1991 in the Ukrainian constitution, is forcing Ruthenian people around the world to begin the process of international recognition of the state of the Republic of Subcarpathian Rus, which was restored in December 1, 2008 ", - said Peter Gecko.

"The Ruthenian Diaspora of the USA and the EU clearly will be deeply involved in the process of international recognition of the paternal state of the Ruthenians of the world”, - said the Prime Minister of the Subcarpathian Rus.- Ruthenians have tried all the possible peaceful legal means, but Ukraine three times in the past two years tried to unleash an armed conflict, involving a large number of Ukrainian soldiers, military equipment, warming up the opinion in the Ukrainian media that Ruthenians want Kosovo, Abkhazian, or Ossetian scenario in the centre of Europe. However, Ruthenians do not want to, and never wanted, any armed conflict in their territory. Ruthenians do not want to see manifestations of acts of any ethnic phobias, massively spread by the Ukrainian nationalists in the Ruthenian land, whether Rutheno-, Magyar-, or any other phobia. Ruthenians do not want anti-Semitism, which Ukrainian society and political structures are trying to impose on Ruthenians for years. It is not, and could never be ours.
