Are you Ukrainian, or biting my head off for no reason?
Do you often go to foreign countries to piss on their culture or only when its convenient?
Russian is the second most commonly spoken language in Ukraine, and your opinion that speaking it is "pissing on their culture" puts you in league with the far right who were doing ethnic cleansing in that country since 2014. Reconsider your opinions.
It's Zelensky's first language, even. I think he avoids it now, but if it's that or English I would hope there'd be no judgement.
Edit: And it shares a lot of vocabulary and ~all grammar with Russian, anyway.
The latter then.
On behalf of my ancestral shtetl there, иди на хуй.
