Please stop offering Russian translation for gov.uk content aimed at Ukrainians

What the petition asks

Please reconsider offering the option of Russian language in any publications and documents related to Ukraine. A massive job has been done to put in order all the requests and questions to create a reliable source of information for Ukrainians on gov.uk, where Russian is given as an option.
After 1.5 years of this terrifying war, seeing the language all over gov.uk, such as the Homes for Ukraine topic, triggers painful flashbacks of dead friends and destroyed cities in our Ukraine. There is only one state language in Ukraine and it is Ukrainian.
