Premonition: the Kremlin’s quest to destroy Ukrainian language and culture

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Article

Abstract

The fight for Ukraine’s survival is happening in more ways than just on the front. The rich heritage of the country’s language and culture is now under attack from a genocidal Kremlin administration determined to consign it to history. Moscow’s war goal of “denazification” is none other than russification.
