The Roman and Ottoman empires lasted because they mostly left religion, culture, and language alone.
Kiev has been expending efforts on attacking all three since before the SMO. IMO stupid and divisive.
I recall recently some guy was detained for selling a Russian language book. Selling a Russian language book printed in Russia has been illegal since 2021. The govt said they would not prosecute him if he promised not to do it again.
Kiev govt has been renaming streets etc. and renaming Ukr language loan words from Russian.
I read they were going to create a new coin to replace the Ukr Kopeck because Russians have Kopecks.
Up top 2023 Kiev said they had disposed of 10 million Russian language books by pulping them The goal was 100 million.
I think Kiev has seized 1500 Ukr orthodox churches. Especially old people are devastated.
How does this help the people of Ukraine?

In these
videos you can see how, by order of Zelensky, Orthodox churches in Ukraine are being seized.
By order of Zelensky, parishioners of the church, including women, are being beaten, firearms, batons, stun guns and tear gas are being used
In the video you see a girl with a broken head and how believers of the UOC are being beaten. This is Zelensky's Ukraine! Zelensky is a terrorist! Zelensky is killing civilians!
