  14. ​ @gabor6259 in many countries it is normal to have education in the language of the country you are in. Secondly, you're free to speak any language, including Russian, in public anytime you want. I barely speak Ukrainian and therefore only spoke Russian during my time in Ukraine. Including when visiting Ukrainian speaking towns like Lviv and Ternopil. I support the law as it saw the opening of more Ukrainian language schools, as before the most schools had been Russian language schools due to the extensive Russification policies of the USSR and the Russian Empire. Some examples of the anti Ukrainian language russification policies were: 1863 – Circular issued by Russia's minister of internal affair Pyotr Valuyev prohibiting censors from giving permission to the publication of Ukrainian spiritual and popular educational literature. 1864 – Adoption of the Charter of the primary school at which education was to be conducted only in Russian. (Quite ironic that you are now crying about Ukraine doing it isn't it?). 1876 - Alexander II's Ems decree banning the printing and importing from abroad of any text in Ukrainian, with exceptions of belles lettres and historical records, it also banned stage performances, public recitations and schooling in Ukraine, as well as it ordered removal of all Ukrainian books from school libraries, teachers that were suspected of Ukrainophilism were to be transferred outside of Ukraine. 1926 – Stalin's letter to "Comrade. Kaganovich and other members of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the CP (B) U with the sanction of the struggle against the "national bias", the beginning harassment of "Ukrainization". (Ukrainization, a term you orcs love to throw around now as well). There was a time in which giving your children Ukrainian names (so Volodymyr instead of Vladimir) was illegal. Learn some actual history before speaking.

  35.  @Manntashsh-Pyrre-tu7wr  my country litterally means "Low lands" and used to called "those lands over there" by the French. No the names don't matter. They're just names. You're trying to justify a war because of a name. So if Ukraine had decided to rename itself Ruthenia, land of the Ruthenes which is the latinzed version of Rus' and the Rus' people, all would have been okay? After all that is know modern Ukraine was known as during the 17th to 20th century by the countries outside of Ukraine. Do you see the stupidity of your comment? Everyone considers the Holy Roman Empire as the predessor to Germany, and not as the successor to the Roman Empire. Russia itself wasn't known as such until Moscovy renamed itself as such. Names are just names. Geographical terms that become country names, no longer are just that geographical term, but a name. My country, with the meaning low countries (litteral translation of the Netherlands/de Nederlanden or low country when we use Nederland) used to controll Indonesia, not really a low laying country lol. France in German and Dutch has name that means Empire of the Franks (Frankreich and Frankrijk respectively) whilst the French name for Germany, Allemagne means the country of the Allemani, a Germanic tribe from antiquity. Names are just names. The fast majority of the world calls my country Holland, which are actually only 2 of the 12 provinces of the country, Holland originally comes from Holtlant, meaning wooded land. I don't know if you've been to the Netherlands, but the Holland regions are everything but wooded nowadays. So yeah again, and I say this as someone with a degree in history, names are just names. Often used to justify things, like you are doing. Moscovy calling itself Russia in order to claim the legacy of the former Rus'. The Holy Roman Empire and Romania calling themselves as such to claim the legacy of the Roman Empire. Ghana, Benin and Mauretania naming themselves as such to claim the legacy of ancient states. Belgium using a form of the Latin name for the low countries in contrast to the Netherlands using a native name. Spain being named after the old Roman province of Hispania, France being named after Francia to claim the historical legacy of the Empire of Charlemagne. I can go on and on.

  36.  @Manntashsh-Pyrre-tu7wr  do you know what the term ancient means? Also maybe read up on the Cossack Hetmenate, the language used there, was Ruthenian, nowadays known as Ukrainian. Also you are aware that nation means people right? 🤣🤣 nations divert, as did the Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians. The Rus' wouldn't have considered any of the three successor nations as "Rus'". Ukrainians and Belarusians were never Russian, they were Rus'. Just like the Russians were. This group split due to external influences (Russia has more tatar influences for example, and Belarus and Ukraine more Polish, this is normal I history). If you deny Ukrainian nationhood, you do the same to Belarus and Russia, as no, you aren't the Rus', you're a seprate divergent people. You sound like the people in my country from the 19th century who claimed we are Batavians, eventhough we aren't lol. Trying to justify your actions because of history is r*tarded. Saying this as a historian lol. Dutch and Flemish are decendants from the Salian Franks, the French have alot of influence from another Frankish tribe as do the Germans. The Dutch and Flemish are the only one still speaking a Lower Franconian language as their official language (Dutch) as Germany has Saxon dialects (Lower German) and as its official language High German (a different dialect group), the same applies to Switzerland and Austria, as in their speak High German, and France doesn't even speak a Germanic language but a Romance language. So in your mind, we have the rights of all former lands of Charlemagne and are the true Franks. I specifically use this example to show you how ridiculous your claims are. I am half Dutch, half Ukrainian, using Ukraine as an example doesn't make sense as you have heard the Russian Imperialist Propaganda to long, so I used another example.
