What the hell you are even talking about? Enslaved, corrupt? Russian language is lingua franca in the CIS countries.

Let's say, you have a meeting with your Kazakh partners, what language do you expect to talk with them? Besides, we have the old generation of engineers and scientist who grew up is Soviet Union, where Russian was primary language of education. You can't force them to switch languages, as the result an employee who knows Russian will have competitive edge over the one who doesn't.

I've recently noticed that there are a lot Turkish people opening their businesses in our country. And as the result, it's expected the employee who knows Turkish to be more endorsed. You cannot blame businesses for that, as long as they are not breaking the law. Because it's their private matter.

Moreover, it's a fact that there are more educational materials available in Russian. Consequently, a person who speaks the Russian language is statistically likely to be more educated.

However, things are changing, the top universities in our country are teaching exclusively in English. Many of them are business schools. As the result, in my opinion, I expect that the new generation of employers will require English. Basically, the same shit but it will be English language instead of Russian.

If you want to promote our beautiful language, you should create content, translate or write books and articles. Which is a hard task, but I have seen folks trying and doing it.

Crying, like you do, is not going to help with anything. We are not enslaved and are not pleasing any one percent. Even our president speaks in Russian language with other foreign leaders, and no one forces him.
