Why do people use Ukrainan yellow and blue in Kievan Rusball?

Ukrainan colors were taken from Lvovish and Galician symbols much later. In pre-Mongolian Rus main colors were red, green blue and others.

Also there was no historical state as "Kievan Rus" it is modern term. It was just Rus. Before Kiev Rus's capital city was Great Novgorod and after coty of Vladimir.

Also this "eagle" was used in different variations by different rulers. And symbol of Rus as whole was usually flag with face of Jesus Christ.
