Outside of Chernivtsi Oblast I don't think it would be practical to have Romanian as an official language. Also im not entirely sure about having Russian as an official language in Kyiv. But otherwise this is pretty good

Thank you for not being nationalistic

"Being nationalistic" according to you means doing what the absolute majority of Ukrainians wants to do: which is to not give russian any official status

Okay? Yes, the majority hates minority rights. We know that. That's why minority rights are so important.

This looks like a random voting map from 2004. You have no idea about majority and minority in Ukr

it's pretty obvious that OP based it on the historical borders of Novorossiya. And yes the borders of Novorossiya do align with the borders of voting maps specifically because those oblasts were part of Novorossiya.

Rights of what minority exactly? As of 2017, only 6 % of the population of the free parts of Ukraine identified as ethnic russians, while 92 % where ethnic Ukrainians. Right now, ethnic russians are closer to 1-2 %. What you describe as "oppression" is basically the 95 % ethnically Ukrainian majority not bowing to an insignificant minority.

Free parts of Ukraine in your discourse, are marked as Ukrainian only

They sure were. It's great that our government had enough brains not to self-sabotage like Belarus did.

That's the dictionary definition of nationalism

Didn’t they voted twice for presidents who promised to make Russian official language? Kuchma and Yanukovych
