You might also refresh your knowledge about how Ukrainian culture has been respected in Russia over the last few years - for example:

There were also numerous arrests of Ukrainians in Russia, most likely as hostages to exchange for DNR/LNR prisoners of war. Ukrainian books were confiscated as "extremist" (you know, Holodomor is now "extremist" topic), several artists were banned from Russia (e.g. Lyapis Trubetskoi).
