I am Soros and I approve this ^ message.Whoa! How are minority languages in Ukraine respected? BTW, Russia is not a minority, it's a majority language in Ukraine, the officials badly want to make it a minority language.A pile of BS from a brainwashed Ukrainian, who would doubt?Well. another example of Ukrainian "democracy" today:
112 Ukraine TV Channel deprived of their digital broadcasting license
It’s useless to talk to you because you keep repeating what Ukrainian Media tells you which doesn’t make any sense but feels normal to you. Army of Soros’ psychologists have been working since the 2014 coup (and heck knows how many years before that) to frame your mind in that way. In your case they succeeded.
It’s NOT normal to have one official language (Ukrainian) when half a country has Russian as the first language. Also there is a large Hungarian community who wants to be able to use their language for official purposes and education and so on. In Soviet times there were a lot of Ukrainian schools and classes for volunteers even in our Eastern parts of Ukraine where almost everybody spoke Russian. Now it’s very difficult to get into a Russian classes because there are lots of volunteers and very very very few classes. I can see why Ukrainian schools had to be closed in Crimea: over 90% has Russian as a first language there. If the things were normal and Ukrainian authorities cared about the people (not just how to please Deep State occupants of our lands) a lot of Ukrainian schools would be closed in Eastern parts too just because the people DO NOT want Ukrainian language.
Russia takes a very good care of Crimea: they built a beautiful airport in Simpheropol, a new bridge, the largest in Europe, and so on and on. Were Ukrainian officials happy with such a care about the residents of Crimea which they call “hostages of Russia and occupied lands”? Not even close. Their reaction was: “We need to blow up that bridge!” You think it’s normal? I think it’s criminal and crazy. And if you remember Ukro Nazis who burned the people alive in Odessa (just because they did not support the coup) were openly yelling about “sinking Crimea in blood”. So, my dear brainwashed friend, Putin did not annex Crimea, he saved the lands and the people from massive massacre (as happened in Donbass later) without even one shot. It was just genius. Too bad he left our Eastern lands (historically Russian) to be destroyed by “democratic” Ukraine.
The Crimean Tatar language is recognized in the 2014 Constitution as a State language of the Republic of Crimea alongside Russian and Ukrainian.

P.S. Thanks for telling us where ESay lives, he tried to keep it as a secret for a long long time.
Why didn't you answer my question?
You think Russia doesn't close anti Putin TV channels or tries to censor them?

Such comments make you sound like someone from the St Petersburg troll factory, exactly the same comments, exactly the same cliches. I've heard them all before. I care nothing about Soros or his opinions.
It is normal, Russia is the only official state language of Russia, despite many languages being spoken in the Russian Federation.
Russian isn't oppressed in Ukraine, it's protected.
"According to Article 10 of the Constitution of Ukraine the state has an obligation to ensure the comprehensive development and functioning of the Ukrainian language in all spheres of social life throughout Ukraine while guaranteeing the free development, use and protection of the Russian language and other languages of national minorities of Ukraine."
The same applies to Hungarian. Is it wrong for people to speak their state language? The reason Ukrainian schools closed in Crimea is because Ukrainian people were persecuted there and forced to leave. "Deep State Occupants" Straight from the Kremlin propaganda handbook. Some people in Eastern Ukraine do want Ukrainian language schools.
That's one side of the story, things aren't so great for many Crimean residents. The tourist industry was decimated when Russia occupied it. What care? Russia has stolen it's land! Odesa, I've debated this on other forums, the story of that isn't the same as you Russian propagandists like to claim, I mean the story leading up to it where Russians from Crimea attacked Ukrainians who were taking part in a peace march.
Putin did annexe Crimea using extreme propaganda to do it. They're not your lands, you're the invaders.
Tatars are persecuted in Crimea, the want Ukraine back in Crimea.
Only couple of things to respond: In Russian federation all the regions allow as many languages as needed, only one small Crimea has 3.There are more than 150 nationalities living in Russia and each area has as many official languages as needed.
I was in Moscow when some hot heads started unsanctioned meetings, blocked the roads, blocked the access to subway stations (including ours), made messes and provoked policemen. I was watching them and police and police responded properly. And Channel One was constantly telling about that and showing that for more than a month until Sep 8, Moscow elections, I'm a witness. Nothing to do with strict censorship in Ukraine.
I have no idea about that channel you're talking about and it may be just another Internet spin. But channel 112 in Ukraine was at least trying to present some truth, that I do know.
A brainwashed Russian.
All minority languages in Ukraine are respected. Ukrainian isn't one of the 3 languages in Crimea.
That's because Russia is a dictatorship. Putin got 100% of votes in some places. That's not a democracy.
Check the link. I know channel 112, I thought it was a reasonable channel, but maybe Russians got control of it.
Reading your posts is like listening to Ukrainian Media: a pile of absurd and lies.
I already posted this to you.
"According to Article 10 of the Constitution of Ukraine the state has an obligation to ensure the comprehensive development and functioning of the Ukrainian language in all spheres of social life throughout Ukraine while guaranteeing the free development, use and protection of the Russian language and other languages of national minorities of Ukraine."
It's not THE majority language in Ukraine.
You don't like to hear the truth, stick to watching Li(f)e News and Rossiya 24/7 propaganda.
Why haven't you answered my question? Why are you living in Ukraine if it's so oppressive to you? Why aren't you living in 'wonderful' Russia? Putin would welcome you with open arms and there would be a big cheer from Ukrainians when you leave.![]()
