For many Ukrainians Russian IS their mother tongue are you suggesting they MUST change that??
Nick, how MANY is that? Again, per usual you do not know of what you speak/write.

People should be allowed to speak whatever language they want, but the official language of a country should not be contingent on the lazy or the dumb, who won't or can't learn the language of the land.

FACT:

As per 2001 census taken thru-out Ukraine, 31 million 971,000 (or 67.5%) people in Ukraine saw Ukrainian as their native language, while 7 million 994,000 (or 29.6%) saw Russian as their native language.
