乌克兰第三大城市敖德萨的议员将在本周投票表决一项争议性提议,即在艺术和文化领域禁止使用俄语1。该提议涵盖公共场所的音乐、文学、街道、公园、公共机构和国营文化场所的俄语内容1,旨在强化乌克兰现有的俄语限制政策,对日常私人使用俄语不产生影响1。
作为以俄语使用者为主的城市1,敖德萨就此提议陷入分歧。支持者将其视为去殖民化的必要举措,反对者则认为这威胁到言论自由和少数族裔权益1。敖德萨面具剧院因使用俄语宣传材料而被罚款,成为相关执法的案例1。
乌克兰已有先例为鉴。2019年颁布的法律已要求在教育、公共服务等多个领域使用乌克兰语1,类似的俄语限制提议也已在基辅和其他城市生效1。2022年全国民调显示,80%的受访者支持乌克兰语主导"所有交流领域"1。然而,基辅学生最近的一项调查显示,82%的学生在课间仍选择使用俄语1。
Ukraine's third-largest city, Odesa, faces a contentious vote this week on whether to restrict Russian-language content in its cultural institutions and public spaces.1 The proposed ban would prohibit Russian-language music, literature, and cultural materials in public venues, streets, parks, public institutions, and state-run cultural facilities, though it would not affect everyday private use of the language.1
The measure reflects broader language policies already in place across Ukraine. A 2019 law mandated the use of Ukrainian in education, public services, and other sectors.1 National polling from 2022 showed that 80 percent of respondents supported Ukrainian as the dominant language in all spheres of communication.1 Similar initiatives have already been implemented in Kyiv and other cities.1 Odesa's Masquerade Theatre was previously fined for using Russian-language promotional materials.1
The proposal has generated sharp divisions in Odesa, a predominantly Russian-speaking city.1 Supporters frame the ban as a necessary decolonization measure, while opponents argue it threatens freedom of speech and minority rights.1 A recent survey of Kyiv students found that 82 percent chose to speak Russian during breaks between classes.1 President Volodymyr Zelensky, whose native language is Russian, now uses only Ukrainian in public settings.1
