User 91.108.31.232 needs to start offering reliable sourcing for their edits attmpting to present Tropak as a Russian dance tradition. Despite false impressions propagated in
The Nutcracker, Tropak was developed and danced solely by the Ukrainian Cossacks. Neither the dress identified with the dance nor the dance itself was ever part of Russian culture. The fact that
Tchaikovsky used traditional Ukrainian dances and folk music does not magically transform these dances and folk music into traditional Russian dance and traditional Russian music. To be clear: Russians have never danced Trepak/Tropak/Hopak as part of their traditional national heritage. The Tropak is a clearly identifiable feature of the Ukrainian heritage. 91.108.31.232 has made edits
here and
here to revise the article to fold Tropak into a Russian tradition of dance. These efforts appear to go beyond
cultural appropriation, these attacks on the sourced facts of Ukrainian culture are in tune with Russia's
largerдезинформация campaign to weaken Ukrainian culture. --

ТРЕПАК – старинная рус. пляска, распространённая также на Украине. Плясовые движения (преимущественно дробные шаги и притоптывания) импровизировались исполнителем, стремившимся показать удаль и виртуозное мастерство. По характеру Трепак имел много общего с «Камаринской» и «Барыней».

TREPAK – ancient Russian dance, also common in Ukraine. Dance movements (mainly fractional steps and trampling) were improvised by the performer, who sought to show prowess and virtuoso skill. The nature of the Trepak had a lot in common with "
Kamarinskaya" and "
Barynya".
