Russia Ukraine war, page-214888

There is plenty of Russian origin residents in Odessa. Probably been biding their time to rejoin Russia."

now what does that mean .....russian speakers (same for the whole of Ukraine ) , ethnic russians ....or you just don't know ??
rounding off it's 62% ethnic Ukrainians , 30% ethnic russ and some Bulgars etc

but plenty of ethnic russians support Ukraine and don't wabnt to be part of russia ......I haven't seen any sign of these partisans in Odesa doing any good thing for russia so far
but you seem happy for ther minority to have a say over the majority
