    Hello, alexander!

    Thursday January 20 2022 16:46, you wrote to me:

    I already told you that we have exactly the same law in Russia.
    So we are humilating people who speak Osetian language?

    They learned to speak Russian hundreds years ago, while joining voluntarily to Russia. And even in this case the czarist Russia also violated their rights. But it is incompatible by the scale with the situation in Ukraine.

    So they have to speak Russian, right? And why do think that Russians in Ukraine can't learn Ukranian?

    And as I already told you - it's possible to visit bars in
    Ukraine without using Ukrainan language. I did it myself.

    I didn't speak about tourists. I told of the Russian people workers in
    Russian speaking areas. It is their land. The earlier Ukrainian

    Osetia is also land of local people. But they have to speak Russian. And people in all regions of Russia have to use Russian as main language.
    You can't even have exams in school in any other language.

    nationalists understand it the sooner two nations will be able live
    peacefully together.

    I think we were living quite peacefully for many years. Until Crimea annexation.

    No -- until the Ukrainian ultra-natinalists came to power in Kiev. Until
    then there was a sober policy which respected all nations living in the country. Nationalism is an ugliest thing possible.

    It is correct that Russia didn't drop a single bomb on Ukraine and no
    Russian planes ever bombed Ukrainian troops. Explanation is simple -- Ukrainian troops and nationalist units can fight only with people
    without weapon. We just helped them with weapon and some our volunteers
    also participated.

    It it correct that Russian troops are now near Ukrainan border at the
    Russian side. It is a lie that we are now occuping Dombass region, and
    we are the only force that prevents Kiev from capturing the territories
    back.

    As with the shootdown of Malaysian Airlines MH17 ... July 17 2014 ... neither had surface-to-air missiles and NATO did "not" provide them.

    I'm amazed that Russia keeps denying its involvement. It places itself among other rogue nations such as USA, China, Turkey, Myanmar, 80% of Africa, Saudi-Arabia, etc ... that do as they please under the guise of national interest.

    Bad accidents often happen during wars. For instance, you can read about multiple cases of friendly fire. War is a crime by itself.
    Especially such accidents are probable when people for a long time have
    no a real war practice. Your probably read how Ukraine shot down a
    Russian passenger plain in 2001. BTW it refused from the responsibility, although evidences were 100 times more obvious then in the MH17 case.

    Two nations have a war in Ukraine. One nation wants to dominate and
    assimilate another. Another nation will never allow it. Well, Russia
    helps Russian people in Dombass, but Russian troops -- that's correct --
    still are on the Russian side of the border.

    It could be the other way around! Many russians say that: "there are no ukrainians, they are a part of russian people" and that "there should be no Ukraine on the map". Even Putin said it: "Russians and Ukrainians were one people". Maybe the so called ukrainian language question is just an excuse and the fact that many russians in Ukraine refuse to speak ukrainian will be used as a tool to assimilate ukrainian language into the great russian:

    I'm not russian.
    But in the recent Article by Vladimir Putin "On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians".
    Read his speech:
    http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/66181
    A quote: "Russians, Ukrainians, and Belarusians are all descendants of Ancient Rus, which was the largest state in Europe".
    This is what he (Putin) and the majority of russians believe. If he believes that russians and ukrainians were a whole: quote "I said that Russians and Ukrainians were one people - a single whole." Maybe he wishes to "repair wrongdoing".

    Ghil,

    (in case Ukraine decides to reconquer Donbass).

    1) The territorial entity of Ukraine is known; Ukraine does not need to
    reconquer what is already Ukraine;

    2) The Donbass-matter can only be solved by political negotiations. Violence
    is "never" the answer.

    2) The Donbass-matter can only be solved by political negotiations. Violence

    1. Don't you find odd that russians and americans are deciding the fate of Ukraine and not ukrainians? Lavrov and Blinken concluded the talks. They just decided its fate. And Zelensky is not acting by himself.

    2. This issue won't be solved peacefully. Just like it started. And I am merely an observer.
    From Zelensky's today speech: "We have learned to deter and counter external aggression quite effectively. I am convinced that the time has come to move to offensive actions to defend our national interests. You have the experience and ability to implement such a strategy. Intelligence, the ability to generate unconventional solutions to acute problems, the courage and dedication of every intelligence officer should remain effective tools used for the benefit of our state"

    And UK is also withdrawing embassy staff and families from Kiev. That means the war could reach as far as Kiev. Russians allways spoke of "Kiev as the 'mother of Russian cities'.

    It is a mistake to think that Croats killed less people than Serbs. On
    the territory of modern Croatia there were big areas with Serbs
    population which was either killed or expelled in 1995. Why NATO helped Croats? -- it is easy they were more untirussian, even in WWII. ;-)

    Showing respect, would endanger the ukrainian language. Because russian would dominate. In all areas. If we would apply the same logic to the other ex-USSR countries, let's say Estonia, there are less that 1 mln. estonian speakers. Russia has a population of 140 mln. And if we had russian as official language because there were 475.000 russians in Estonia in 1991, then in 20 years estonian language would have died. The same way the majority of irish people today speak english instead of irish.

    Compulsion is the most worst scenario in cultivating anything. A human

    In Ukraine there are areas where people speak Ukrainian -- so, hold a popularization campaign (of the Ukrainian language) there. But they

    Well, Estonians can make a law that every Estonian should know Estonian.
    But why Russian children in Estonia should study in Russian schools in Estonian only? You know perfectly well, that if you have a difficulty in understanding a certain thing reading it in your native language, you
    will never understand it better studying it a foreign language. So in
    Estonian schools should be lessons of Estonian, but certainly Russian
    children there should be taught other subjects in the language of their choice.

    Hello, alexander!

    Showing respect, would endanger the ukrainian language. Because
    russian would dominate. In all areas.

    Compulsion is the most worst scenario in cultivating anything. A human
    nature of a free person doesn't tolerate compulsion, and he will do
    the opposite. And more hate will arise in the society.

    I will make it more simple: in USSR, if there were 5 estonians and 1 russian in a room, they will all switch to russian because russians didn't need to learn the languages of the republics. If we would make russian official then they would have one more excuse not to learn ukrainian/estonian etc. That would make compulsory for everybody to learn and speak russian. Putin is using russian speakers in ex-soviet republics in his own interest.

    In Ukraine there are areas where people speak Ukrainian -- so, hold a popularization campaign (of the Ukrainian language) there. But they intrude in the areas where the Russian language was used for
    centuries!

    I don't know what centuries are you talking about? The last 100 years after USSR was formed? Or before that? Do you think the Moscow dialect which is the basis of the modern Russian literary language and spread in Russian Empire was spoken in the Wild Plains of Ukraine? This "russian language" you think today was spoken by russians in the past, in fact appeared in 18th century with the modernization reforms of Peter the Great. The other local and peasant's dialects have all but dissapeared except little russian (ukrainian) and white russian (belarusian) because they had their own republics and created their own literary languages.
    If I would be russian and knew that russians, ukrainians and belarusians have common roots and spoke the same langauge 1000 years ago or I knew that russian and ukrainian are dialects of the same language then it would be no big deal to switch to ukrainian. Why is Putin speaking of the same origin of russians and ukrainians and at the same time russians in Ukraine despise ukrainian language so much? They had more than 30 years to learn ukrainian!

    No need.  The Australian Constitution already provides for the incorporation of New Zealand into the Commonwealth of Australia.  No hassles, although they do have to agree first... a minor sticking point.

    Political views of course are another reason for civil wars, but these
    wars always move history forward. The main problem are the situations
    when some fucking guys clench power with a dead grip, and they refuse to
    give up power at any price. A building becomes unreconstructable prison,
    and the only way out is to blow it up all and build a new building. I
    like how it happen in Romania. ;-)

    You should see how it has been done in the civilized countries, that's

    Just imagine another situation. Suppose that in 2014 Russian
    east-ukrainian ultra-nationalists came to power in Kiev, and they
    declared Russian to be the only eligible language in a unilateral Russian-speaking Ukraine. Then partisans would fight in western Ukraine,
    and we see the reversed situation. ;-)
    The matter is not who can learn another language. The matter is in
    violation of freedoms and customs of people that formed for centuries. Especially it is dangerous when two nations divide one country.

    If you dig so deep you will find that the modern form of English is
    also young. But the truth is that for 3 hundred years, at least, such areas as Kharkov region, Dombass, Crimea have been Russian.

    3 hundred years ago Kharkov was the center of Sloboda Ukraine, Donbass was on the ukrainian Wild Fields (Dikoye Polye) populated by Zaporozhian Cossacks and Crimea was part of Crimean Khanate. Crimea was incorporated into the Russian Empire in the 1780s.
    Not to forget that Kuban Cossacks spoke an Ukrainian dialect used by the Black Sea Cossacks who moved to the Kuban in 1792. The language spoken by them "Balachka" was classified as a dialect of the Little Russian language(ukrainian) in pre-revolutionary Russia and those cossacks - as little russians.
    For an english speaker who doesn't know better it could look russian: https://tinyurl.com/7hpm2s2v
    But we both know this is ukrainian.
    The lands of Don Cossacks and Kuban were depopulated as a result of Soviet famine of 1932-33 (Holodomor).

    Alexander,

    The world has been laughing and wondering about Belgium and its
    historic and on-going language crisis ... we never turned it
    into a military conflict.

    May be it can happen when one ultra-nationalists will want to assimilate another. ;-)

    What you can notice here is that people don't really give a fuck about that language... it's just a language. Massive floods in July killed a pile of people and destroyed hundreds of homes ... the solidarity from the other language-community was impressive ... more help than the government managed to offer.

    What we notice is that the langauge-border is also an economical border with opportunities lacking "on the other side" and it is 'that' which causes the uneasyness. So I'm assuming in Ukraine it is somewhat the same ... it's about opportunities for business, to find jobs, to provide a future for a family ... opportunities which are lacking in one of the regions.

    This is something that could be handled by the EU if Ukraine were to join because the EU recognizes special needs of regions separate from what the country-borders are ... there are support programmes especially for that purpose ...

    It's not bout Ukraine being governed from Brussels, it remains autonomous but about the opportunity to tap into resources which are available and develop itself ... that is totally different from a system where an individual in a palace in Moscow decides for himself what is good ...

    The best tool to eliminate hostility and to prevent wars, is to promote trade and economic processes, that's exactly why the foundation of the EU was laid way back when ... to prevent historical foes Germany and France to launch yet another WW debacle once the dust had settled ... and it seems it worked. No more wars between the EU members ever since its creation.

    I'm young enough to remember Soviet troops invading Hungary, Czechoslvakia, Poland ... every time with troops coming from far in the east having no clue what was up and brainwashed thinking they were on a liberation mission or exercises having no idea in which country they were.

    If you go to Budapest, there still are the buildings with battle-damage from the 1956 uprising ... Hungarians decided to keep it as a reminder ... I can't believe Russians will want to repeat history and think you can solve a thing by military interventions ... that goes as well for the USA btw.

    War is good for business, all kinds of tools are developed to kill people and why buy them if you can't use them, right? Armies are also a way to hide unemployment ... if you're too dumb or too lazy to get a job, go into the armed forces, they provide meals home clothing and a salary .... In the middle ages and after the kings had mercenaries to carry-out their dirty business, that has not changed. That's not the way to go ... if you see the cost that goes into armies like the USA, Russia, China ... that money is more than enough to eradicate hunger and poverty in the whole world, even on Antarctica.

    Well, let's leave the history alone -- historians often were not
    unbiassed, and wrote their works according orders from the current
    authority, or according own perverted understanding.

    Let's make the situation with the Russian language oppression in Ukraine
    still more simpler -- a weak person (nation) can be offended by a strong person. He can force a weak person to make and accept anything
    unpleasant, a rape including. But if instead of a weak person there will
    be a strong person he will not allow to be offended and fight back and
    will make a running nose to the offender.

    In other words, if Ukrainian nationlists thought about Russian part of population in Ukraine as a weak person - it was a gross mistake. And
    they should learn a wise Chinese saying -- don't start a war if you
    unsure you can win. Both parts of Ukraine are strong and they must live peacefully and respect each other.

    An Islamic state is not the same to "Islamic terrorist state". I know

    How is russian language opressed? Zelenski, ukrainian president, is speaking russian most of the time, and sometimes he switches to ukrainian on TV. I saw footages on youtube from ukrainian front where ukrainian soldiers were speaking russian and at the same time they want Ukraine to be whole again. Most of the soldiers if they are from eastern part of the country speak russian and at the same time they hate separatists so much. But this is because of russification. And here is a map from 1914 (you can't blame Lenin or bolsheviks for that): https://tinyurl.com/bdeh8azt
    You see in Kuban and Donbass they spoke ukrainian (little russian). Ukrainians in the Donbass were affected by the 1932-'33 Holodomor famine and the Russification policy of Joseph Stalin. As most ethnic Ukrainians were rural peasant farmers, the majority of those who died during the famine in the Ukrainian SSR were ethnic Ukrainians.

    Do you know that Ghaddafi was even paying to Australian aboriginals to create terrorists cells in Australia?

    in Lybia was not bad as it is now.

    You cannot rape minds of the whole generations for many years and expect country to became some normal country after that.
    I know Lybian guy who still remembers how he was warching public hangings on Lybian TV as a child where people were agonizing hanging on the ropes and Huda Amer (very famous Lybian politican, Benghazi major later in her life under Ghaddafi's rule) was pulling legs of some guy with screams that he deserve that.

    Do you still pro-Ghaddafi? May be you also think that Stalin's mass purges were ok for our country?

    Govori (or dialects) (the map is govori map) has nothing in common with languages.
    It is the map of dialects of the Russain language across Russia, but the Ukrainian language is not a dialect. The map tells how Russian language
    was distorted on different part of Russia. And in Ukraine of course it
    has the influence of the Ukraine and Polish languages. The author
    exactly told about dialects of the Russian language.

    It is a propaganda -- in that famine killed people many nations, Russian including. It is a lie to say that it was only Ukrainians. Volga region

    I say it once more -- Ukraine is divided in two parts, and it was always obvious. Western Ukrainians hate Russians and they probably have the
    right not to learn Russian. As well as Russians in eastern and southern
    parts have right not to speak Ukrainian. They are equal in this
    question, and when somebody orders any people to speak different
    language it violates their freedom. If Russian people in Ukraine be
    happy to start speak Ukrainian there will be no Crimea separation and
    Dombass war.

    On the market you try to sell in your sack a dog instead of a piglet. Govori (or dialects) (the map is govori map) has nothing in common
    with languages. It is the map of dialects of the Russain language

    In 1914 in Russian Empire that was exactly how the russian language was divided by the linguists into: Great Russian, Little Russian and White Russian (each with it's own 'govory'). Little Russian (ukrainian) was spoken exactly where the map shows. Ukrainian(litte russian) and Belarus (white russian) weren't even considered languages but merely dialects of the russian language.
    In fact in Moscow and Vladivostok today they speak exactly the same language because the spoken form of the "Russian language" which is Moscovian dialect/Standard Russian was that of the nobility and bourgeoise in the Russian empire. Peasant's speech was not studied and after the Russian Revolution rapidly declined and dissapeared.

    A lie is a bad thing. Russia supports the right of the Russian people
    in eastern Ukraine live as Russian people, as they did for hundreds of years before.
    Boundary lines change. Such as the United States inheriting territory. Unfortunately Biden is literally Putin's puppet more than the left in the United States thinking Trump was Putin's puppet.

    It depends how much people are against the order. it is very incorrect
    to compare Russians via Ossetians in Russia and Russians and Ukrainians
    in the present-day Ukraine. Beside this -- who is the person who must be called an Ukrainian?

    The situation would be similar in one case: if Ossetian people spoke
    Ossetian language and suddenly Russian authority issued an order for
    them to speak Russian. Russia has never issued such order, even in the
    Tsarist time -- it happened historically, without orders - the Ossetian
    people understood that it is useless to isolate themselves in their
    small territory. In other words the initiative to speak Russian was from
    them, and it was their decision.

    No, they were forced to do it. Just ask anyone from Osetia - are they ok to use they native language for school exams?
