Many countries have languages that are only spoken by a few villages and the government protects them. Do you enforce this or believe they need to go extinct.
Putin bans English words in Russian. The Irish government makes it compulsory to learn irish in school and only a few villages speak it. The baltics, belarus ans ukraine 90% of them speak russian and their native languages are nearly extinct. This is why crimea broke away as they were made speak ukrainian (along with many other reasons)
Again, that's a lie. I was there before Russia annexed it. Most Ukrainians speak Russian. Even in Ukraine proper. My friends are all Ukrainian or Georgian. They all speak Russian.
And of course Crimea is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Right up there with Jamaica and Montenegro.
did crimeans want to join russia? russia did an unofficial poss saying that 75% wanted to reunite with russia. It was nice till ukriane cut off the water and they died of thirst. Now russia has gotten it back again
Nearly 8,000 Crimean Tatars died during the deportation, while tens of thousands perished subsequently due to the harsh exile conditions.[4] The Crimean Tatar exile resulted in the abandonment of 80,000 households and 360,000 acres of land. An intense campaign of detatarization to erase remaining traces of Crimean Tatar existence followed. In 1956, the new Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, condemned Stalin's policies, including the deportation of various ethnic groups, but did not lift the directive forbidding the return of the Crimean Tatars, despite allowing the right of return for most other deported peoples. They remained in Central Asia for several more decades until the Perestroika era in the late 1980s when 260,000 Crimean Tatars returned to Crimea. Their exile lasted 45 years. The ban on their return was officially declared null and void, and the Supreme Council of Crimea declared on 14 November 1989 that the deportations had been a crime.
