Alla områden som ryssarna erövrar så fängslas alla som talar ukrainska, allt som är ukrainska förbjuds där.
När det var Ukraina så fick man tala ryska och ha ryska skolor.
Vem är värre..ryssen så klart
Du lever i nån annan värld tydligen.
Rules Against Russian Language
In Ukraine, there have been several laws and policies aimed at reducing the prominence of the Russian language. In 2019, a law was passed that aimed to strengthen the role of the Ukrainian language in all spheres of social life, and it placed restrictions on the use of Russian in the media, education, and business.
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the Ukrainian parliament passed additional laws that banned Russian citizens from printing books unless they take Ukrainian citizenship, prohibited the import of books printed in Russia, Belarus, and the occupied Ukrainian territories, and prohibited the reproduction in the media and public transport of music performed or created by post-1991 Russian citizens, unless the musicians are included in a "white list" of artists who have publicly condemned Russian aggression against Ukraine.
In Russia, President Vladimir Putin signed a law in February 2023 that seeks to encourage compliance with the rules of the literary Russian language and restrain the use of foreign words. The law prescribes that if the Russian language is used as the national language, the norms of the contemporary Russian literary language shall be followed, such as the rules that are recorded in dictionaries, reference books, and grammar books.
In other countries, such as Latvia, laws have been passed to reduce the use of the Russian language. For example, a law passed in September 2022 requires all Russian citizens to take a Latvian language proficiency test (minimum A2 level) in order to maintain permanent residence in Latvia.
Additionally, Latvia's "National Security Concept" outlines that all content created by public media must only be in Latvian and languages belonging to the European cultural space, effectively banning Russian content from 1 January 2026.
These laws and policies reflect a broader trend in Eastern Europe and Central Asia to distance themselves from the Russian language and culture, often in response to Russia's actions and policies.
