But I imagine his "No Russian" was in reference to country of origin and not the language. Russian used to be spoken by all the USSR countries, so I would be surprised if he didn't at least have a working knowledge of it.

What he said, precisely, was, "No Russian! Georgian language!" but you're the expert here, so by all means take over and do it your way. :-)
