Odessa is in a region not content with the Ukrainian government. But if the mayor isn’t sufficiently hostile to Russia with his words he will be killed. Keep that in mind as you read this
According to a 2004 public opinion poll by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology, the number of people using Russian language in their homes considerably exceeds the number of those who declared Russian as their native language in the census. According to the survey, Russian is used at home by 43–46% of the population of the country (in other words a similar proportion to Ukrainian) and Russophones make a majority of the population in Eastern and Southern regions of Ukraine:[26]
Autonomous Republic of Crimea — 97% of the population
Dnipropetrovsk Oblast — 72%
Donetsk Oblast — 93%
Luhansk Oblast — 89%
Zaporizhia Oblast — 81%
Odessa Oblast — 85%
Kharkiv Oblast — 74%
Mykolaiv Oblast — 66%
The Russian bots are really in to projection.
In Ukraine people don't have to worry about falling out of windows.
“Odessa is in a region not content with the Ukrainian government. But if the mayor isn’t sufficiently hostile to Russia with his words he will be killed. Keep that in mind as you read this”
Like everywhere Russia left. Those reported as welcoming to Russia were rooted out. Slaughtered. Murdered. Then Russia blamed.
“Odessa is in a region not content with the Ukrainian government.”
Odessa voted for Zelensky in the first round of the 2019 presidential election, and again in the second and final round (in which he received 73% of the national vote).
