Show me that part of the contract and I’ll believe you. What was certainly part of the contract was the inviolability of its territory, and you know who broke it? Russia in 2014 with the illegal referendums and annexation of Crimea. Now you will repeat again the story of the 2014 coup etc… But remember that this story didn’t start in 2014. Yanukovych is Putin’s puppet, he needed him in order to subjugate Ukraine without a fight, just like Belarus. The trick didn’t work this time and you know the rest of the story.
Sometimes the reality is more complex than what it seems, it’s like a matryoshka.

I am very familiar with the orthodox christianity and I myself am orthodox christian. I know the text and actually it is not far from the truth, but … please acknowledge that this text is not official statement of the Orthodox Church and also this web site is not official site of the orthodox church.
So please, do not insult the Orthodox Church. As it is typical for various denominations (catholic, jewish, muslim, budhists etc.) there are various interpretations. Some are more extreme than others.
If Selensky did not forbid the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, I would say … well may be those guys, who wrote the text are exaggerating somehow … but after I saw what the NAZIs are doing there … may be the guys who wrote the text are exactly right. I, however, prefer to be neutral.
And I do not understand what is your point or why would you provoke on religious matters. I can just conclude that you are two an imbecile and would ask you to stop. It leads to nothing.

Stop lying, you are the one who knows nothing about the Ukrainian constitution. It was ratified in 1996 and it states that there’s only one official state language: Ukrainian. It’s always been like this.
Therefore the law you are referring to in 2014 doesn’t go against any contract and it’s Russia who broke the contract first by illegally annexing Crimea. Period.

Chinese Ambassador to France Liu Shaye in an interview with the French channel LCI:
— Explain your position, it seems a bit ambivalent. Do you think that Crimea is Ukraine?
— It depends on the perception of the problem. There is a story: Crimea was originally Russian. Khrushchev gave Crimea to Ukraine during the Soviet era.
— Sorry, but according to international law, you know, Crimea belongs to Ukraine.
— According to international law, even the countries of the former USSR do not have, how can I put it, an effective status in international law. Since there is no international agreement specifying their status as a sovereign country.
Thats all folks…

So you know everything … especially how to oppress and kill people. And this is one of the issues with this 3rd Reich mentality of the Übermensch. All people are equal and if you have such a big minority (RU speaking), you can not deny them the right to use their language. I was amazed that in India they have 16 official languages and you can get your papers in every district in your language - there are bureaucrats everywhere, who speak the 16 official languages, so the question is why UA refused this to the RU? Perhaps because of the NAZIs … well, you can not hide from the obvious, even if you deny the earth is round, it will not make it flat.
Let me remind you:
On 28 October 1989, the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR adopted the “Law of Languages”.[21] The Ukrainian language was declared the only official language, while the other languages spoken in Ukraine were guaranteed constitutional protection. The government was obliged to create the conditions required for the development and use of Ukrainian language as well as languages of other ethnic groups, including Russian. Usage of other languages, along with Ukrainian, was allowed in local institutions located in places of residence of the majority of citizens of the corresponding ethnicities.[ clarification needed ] Citizens were guaranteed the right to use their native or any other languages and were entitled to address various institutions and organisations in Ukrainian, in Russian, or in another language of their work, or in a language acceptable to the parties.[22]
The adoption of the “Law on Languages” preceded the Declaration of Independence of Ukraine (24 August 1991) by almost two years.[21] The Ukrainian SSR was still part of the Soviet Union, and its parliament still dominated by the Communist Party of Ukraine.[21] After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, the law, with some minor amendments, remained in force in the independent Ukrainian state.[21] Ever since, there have been discussions on the potential adoption as Russian as a co-official language alongside Ukrainian, particularly raising debates during presidential and parliamentary election campaigns.[21] Leonid Kuchma had made raising the status of Russian one of his 1994 electoral promises, but did not deliver it during his presidency.[21]

Will Europeans start learning Russian (again) 
One can not understand a higher dimension, when operating in a lower dimension.
I have to make a note/disclaimer here, that I am writing most of this here for fun.
I just want Jolla to turn off the flagging function because it is not democratic.

There is an agreement signed by both Russia and China in 1991, which states the following:
“The territory of Ukraine is indivisible and inviolable.”
If you don’t recognize this fact you are a liar.

Law doesn’t work like that, it’s not the oldest law that is valid, it’s most recent instead (in this case the constitution).
Otherwise we should observe the Hammurabi code, but I think we all agree that this is a bad idea.
My guy you are functionally illiterate! You are incapable of understanding the meaning of two sentence quote. It’s not about me recognizing or not recognizing anything. The quote is about People’s Republic of China explaining the international law.
One of the republics within the USSR changes its name.
And the new name of the USSR is RF.
That’s what the United Nations recognize! Chinese Ambassador was citing the UN!

I don’t want to learn Russian again. Seven years were enough and in the end a waste of time (or 4 the ass).
Look I’m not going to play the insult game, because to me when somebody resorts to insults to prove an argument it means that he/she lost that argument.
I’ll repeat it again, China recognized the independence of Ukraine on December 27 1991 (after Ukraine changed name).
The declaration of independence states the following among other things:
“The territory of Ukraine is indivisible and inviolable.”
Crimea at that time was part Ukraine, that’s a fact, it doesn’t matter what you and the Chinese ambassador think about it.
It also doesn’t matter if Crimea in the past was part of Russia, before being part of Russia it was a Khanate and before that it was something else. If every single country in the world wants to reclaim all the territories that were under their control in the past it’s chaos. Thanks god not all the countries have imperial ambitions.
BTW what the ambassador said in that occasion was refuted by the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson literally the day after the interview.
