Quote:I don't know of a single former Soviet republic where they have not adopted their native language (or one of them) officially. Do you? There might be some that have kept Russian alongside it. (Apparently this is true of Belarus, and the Central Asian republics.)
I'm confused as to what you mean by this. What language should they be teaching in?
Vilnius used to be a Polish/Lithuanian city, until under the early Soviets (who were suspicious of the Poles) removed the taint of Polish-ness from Lithuania. Stalin made it clear throughout the Soviet empire that "Russian" would be the language of science/education and politics.
