How Russia Destroys Other Nations
Russia takes away the identity of other ethnic groups and gives them a low standard of living, poor education, and propaganda on television instead
Ukraine has been suffering from the war started by Russia 10 years ago. The million-plus-person city of Kharkiv is under Russian shelling every day. An attack on a hypermarket on May 25 claimed the lives of 19 civilians. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have liberated the large city of Kherson, but the Russians continue to harass its residents with missile strikes. Bakhmut, Maryinka, Avdiivka and Severodonetsk —industrial cities in eastern Ukraine— no longer exist because Russia literally destroyed them. However, as a Ukrainian parliamentarian, I have to acknowledge that we are not the only ones who suffer from Russian imperialism.
Dozens of nations within the Russian Federation want to save their identities, but the Kremlin constantly obstructs it, violating human rights. The modern empire wants the people to have only one identity — Russian. The Russian Federation has enslaved entire ethnic groups to achieve it.
Russia is not only Russians
Approximately 20 percent of the current Russian population are not Russians. Tatars, Chechens, Bashkirs, Tuvans, Circassians, Chuvash, Kalmyks, Adyghe, Avars, and Mordvins inhabit Russia and undergo oppression. Millions of Russian citizens are of non-Russian origin, but efforts are made to impose a Russian identity on them.
