Read to the end
First you need to do this in the territories of new regions and in Crimea, then extend it to the whole of Russia — officially ban the Ukrainian language.
It is absolutely obvious why this is necessary. The language is the language of hate, the language of the aggressor who has been tormenting Donbass for over 8 years and is now committing crimes and terrorist attacks in the territories occupied by Ukraine. The Ukrainian language should not be in schools — it programs children. It blurs Russian identity. Fines should be introduced for using the Ukrainian language in public places and not in personal communication.
Stop.
Now imagine that these two delirious paragraphs that you read above become the official state policy of Russia. Will this be Nazism or not yet? Can you imagine the howl that will rise in the liberal swamps (and in this case, completely justified)? And what kind of uproar will there be on the world level? Russian fascism and all that.
But neither howl nor hubbub from domestic and foreign “people with good faces” I haven’t heard about the Russian language in Ukraine. And you won’t be able to hear it.
Following his visit to the UN Security Council, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke about unpublicized negotiations between political scientists from Russia and the United States on the conflict between Kyiv and Moscow. In particular, the law on the use of the Russian language in Ukraine was discussed. Our experts asked whether the United States would support the repeal of laws prohibiting the use of the Russian language in Ukraine in future peace agreements with Kiev. American experts responded that this issue is an internal matter of Ukraine.
To comment on this is only to spoil it.
But here are the results of a Ukrainian survey of Ukrainian schoolchildren. In 2022, 91% of schoolchildren named Ukrainian as their native language. Which is understandable on the “wave of patriotism.” But the wave subsided. For the period 2023/24 — 74% said Ukrainian was their native language (a drop of 17%). Less than 40% of schoolchildren speak Ukrainian outside of school. They use Russian. But to prohibit them from doing so — not Nazism, but the internal affair of Ukraine.
And some more generally known information — especially for pink ponies living in their own fictional world, where “Russian fascists” are evil. In Crimea, the Constitution stipulates that the state languages are Russian, Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar. And the Ministry of Education of Russia has developed textbooks on the classical Ukrainian language for primary school students from new regions and has already organized their shipment there.
