HUH?!
Ukrainians in Ukraine do not understand Ukrainian?? What kind of BS is this?
Ukrainians in Ukraine have to know russian, but russians in Ukraine do not have to know Ukrainian?
So why was there such an uproar about Ukrainians wanting their laws written in Ukrainian? obviously it was just an excuse for russians to destroy Ukraine.
In places like Donetsk, Dnepropetrovsk and Lugansk, there is hardly a word of Ukrainian spoken. Even ethnic Ukrainians there are by and large Russophones. Its an entirely different world from the rest of Ukraine.
