    Got a Ukrainian family friend from the east side of Ukraine, spoke Russian as her primary language and knew some Ukrainian.

    Once the invasion started, she vowed to never speak Russian again and spent months trying to get fluent in Ukrainian.

      Wasn’t Zelensky (I probably misspelled that) also primarily russian speaking before he went into politics?

        He was, yes. He speaks perfectly now.

      Yeah, most of my formerly russian-speaking friends are like that. Tl
