: : Why are so many ukrainians speaking in Russian? Why are there so many Russian newspapers?
: Because people like Russian more, I guess. Why force them to do what they don't like doing?
Dear Feodor, I can tell you douzens of facts of forcing (or pressing) against Ukraine and Ukrainian word from leadershEEp. Only one: Ukrainian President's wife is very often on TV and she speaks only Russian. I have heard when she corrected a correspondent (who addressed to her "Lyudmylo Mykolayivno!") "My name is Lyudmila Nikolayevna and this name is not translated!"
