How many signers are native Ukrainian-speaking?

Looks like Kiev’s authority doesn’t run far in the Russian-speaking east.

As per various maps -- you can google them -- the Donetsk etc. regions are not "russian speaking" in the sense of being majorities like in Crimea (anywhere from 60 to 70% Russians there), but are less than 50%.

However, also remember that in these areas there are Ukrainians who speak Russian as their native tongue but feel Ukrainian, unlike in Crimea where there were folks who felt Russian

Still pushing the Russian speakers crap ? A lot of Kiev is Russian speaking too.
