Only 3% of surveyed residents in occupied Crimea identified themselves as Ukrainians. At the same time, there is currently not a single school, church, or cultural institution there with Ukrainian as the language of instruction or communication.
This was reported by the Commissioner for the Protection of the State Language, Olena Ivanovska. According to the official, the aggressor country is thus trying not only to change the linguistic environment, but to sever people’s ties with Ukraine and gradually push Ukrainian identity out of their lives.
