Cernăuţi was a former Romanian/Moldavian city which was stolen by the USSR and then after its collapse was given as a gift to the Ukraine (as USSR did with Northern Bukovina, Northern Bessarabia, Southern Bessarabia and Snake Island).

Chernivtsi was occupied by Romanians in 1918. Its a slavic town, founded in the XIII-XIV centuries.

ЭТО ЧТО ЕЩЕ ЗА ЧАСТЬ румынии. ЧЕРНОВЦЫ были есть и будут в составе Украины. А румыния потеряла право на эти земли, после того как подержала во второй мировой войне фашистов ясна уроды.
