Considering Russian is not only spoken in Russia but also in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan, what would be the safest country to travel to where you can speak Russian? Probably not Russia or Ukraine because of the war but yeah.

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.
