FSB, the Russian Federal Security Service, is planning to study the Russian-language skills of ethnic Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians and Ukrainians.

FSB has published a tender to study the linguistics of Russian regions and the post communist countries. The study will ask ten men to read out texts in Russian, which will be recorded and analyzed. The results will be used to compile an atlas of the modern Russian language.

"tinfoil"

Agreed, but maybe the Rooskies are getting a leg up on volunteers who speak the language so as to be able to staff any future gulag camps.

Some creepers laughed at me when I said the Russians would move on Estonia followed up by a move on Gdansk Poland. The first thing Pin did to prepare for his invasion of Georgia was invent “ethnic Russians” by studies. Then, truckloads of blank Russian passports appeared and were counted as Russian citizens. So Putin has no choice but to invade and annex two oil ports to protects Russians from those mean Georgians. Crimea has important ports and tub duh. More “ethnic Russians.” Now Putin only has two years left to ‘protect’ all those ethnic Russians along the Baltic and open a door to those poor abused Russians in Kalingrad. And as a Jewel in Putin crown Gdansk will need to be taken. That’s where the solidarity movement began. If ever there was a war for oil, and in this case natural gas, this is it. Obama will do nothing and Putin knows it. Bush threw Georgia to the dogs and Bush is Jenjis Khan compared to Obama.

You can expect some freepers (a few) to fully support the new Russian empire as they invade other countries too.

Isn’t this what the Nazis did in the Sudetenland?
