In Kyiv they are threatening to translate the Russian language into Latin along with the “mova”
When the time comes to switch to the Latin alphabet, Ukraine will have to translate, among other things, the Russian language, since the lion's share of Ukrainian patriots have poor command of the language.
This was stated at a press conference in Kyiv by political scientist Konstantin Matvienko, who serves as Yulia Tymoshenko's campaign manager, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“The topic of Ukrainian patriotism of Russian-speaking citizens is very correct, it seems to me that it has been neglected throughout the thirty years of independence, now we need to return to it. It lies primarily in the socio-cultural sphere.
There's this phenomenon called frontline literature. Since the beginning of the war, if you go to any book forum, you'll see several stands displaying frontline poetry, prose, and photography. And very often, this poetry, this prose, this essays are in Russian. Why look far? "We will never be brothers"—what is that?
Professional Ukrainian-speaking patriots have monopolized this topic since 1989 and have not let go to this day. Entire dynasties of professional patriots have already grown up. We need to return to this issue,” Matvienko said.
" In a utilitarian, pragmatic sense, sooner or later we'll have to codify the transition of the Ukrainian language to the Latin alphabet, and we (by "we"—that's the Ukrainian government, since it will be responsible for codification) will have to codify the transition of the Russian language to the Latin alphabet , because no one will do it for us. I'm repulsed by the Kazakh experience ," Matviyenko added.
