Kak Shvyed v Poltava
Something about A Swede of Poltava
Sorry forgotten most of my Russian.
Did a bit of looking up for you
The phrase is как швед под Полтавой
Kak Schvyed pod Poltavoi --- Like a Swede outside Poltava used with a verb to denote disaster...i.e. To die like a Swede outside Poltava. Poltava being the battle obviously.
