During the hockey match of CSKA- Spartak, Russian fans supported the participants of the Euromaidan, reports APTSI.ru. They chanted "Glory to Ukraine - Glory to the heroes!"
The video of this episode was published on YouTube. The video has collected almost 150 thousand views and more than 650 comments per day. Ukrainians thanked the fans for their support.
“I am ready for friendly relations with such Russia. But not with the Kremlin,” “I hope such Russians understand that I didn’t write all sorts of nasty things about them. If not, I ask you to forgive,” “Thank you to real brothers from Russia, who are not conducted on the Putin’s anti -Ukrainian propaganda!” Said commentators.
On Wednesday, Lviv activists decided to speak Russian in solidarity with residents of the southern and eastern regions of Ukraine. Activists explained about their idea by the reluctance to admit "so that in the Ukrainian parliament, dishonest people use their status for the split of Ukraine."
“We, Lviv, want to appeal to the inhabitants of the East and South of Ukraine with gratitude for support in the struggle against criminal authorities,” it was said. “We stood together on the barricades, we mourn with you about the dead, and we want to build a new Ukraine with you ... It is now important for us to support you in the struggle that still continues in Lugansk, Crimea, Dnepropetrovsk, Herson and Hurseson and Hurseson Odessa ".
Participants in the action assured that they did not intend to forcefully impose the Ukrainian language and even more to oppress the Russian -speaking population. “The rights of each person, regardless of nationality and language, honor and dignity - that is why we stood on the Maidan and continue to stand,” the activists say.
The initiative was enthusiastically met by Donetsk Russian -speaking activists. In response, they announced their intention to communicate only in Ukrainian and called their comrades in other southern and eastern regions to do the same. “The significance of the Russian language in our regions is exaggerated, since it is enough to drive away from some big city by at least five kilometers - and you will hear Ukrainian speech,” the Donetsk residents noticed, in particular. In Lugansk, they also held a street tongue "in Lviv today they speak Russian, and in Lugansk in Ukrainian as a sign of solidarity."
