You must have used a very old country file at one time, or made the change
to Ukraine yourself.  In fact, the *only* RU prefix that is mapped to
Ukraine in the current country file is RU5U:

RU5U,UT,1982/01/01,1993/07/01

DX4WIN 9.0x does maintain a file named "usrexcpt.dat" in your SAVE
directory which contains call-to-country mappings specific to you.  So if
you make a change, that change will essentially live on forever, unless you
periodically remove this file.
