Considering Russian is not only spoken in Russia but also in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan, what would be the safest country to travel to where you can speak Russian? Probably not Russia or Ukraine because of the war but yeah.

Safe for whom? Also, speaking Russian might not be the most popular right now, depending on where you go.

I've kind of wondered if they'd fault a foreigner for using Russian in Ukraine. It's just so much more widely spoken, learning Ukrainian makes no practical sense.
