@roland I just don't understand why anyone cares what language anyone else speaks. May It's because I live in one of the only countries in the world that doesn't have an official language, so without government force naturally the use of additional languages has not been necessary, hence why I also live in one of the only countries where the majority of college educated people only speak one language. (There was a proposal over 200 years ago to make German the national language that almost passed).

@fu That's a childish short-ranged view on the actual problem in Ukraine. There is a law against "foreign" languages in place which only allows Ukrainian as a spoken and written language. Just image this reflected back at, let's say Germany where Turkish people suddenly start demanding that Turkish is the only language allowed to be used in Germany and if you speak e.g. German you are being fined with 200-300 EUR each attempt. Sure you you divide a country with this attempt.
