Why this petition matters

Started by Maryna Krishtof

For long years Ukrainians experienced russification, expecting to understand, speak and use russian even in their private lives. Unfortunately this hasn't only been coming from russia itself, major multi technology and entertainment companies that receive profit from Ukraine expect their users to understand and use russian. Although a certain percentage of Ukrainian population understands and can speak russian, for many this was not a conscious choice. Understanding of russian for many Ukrainians has been a result of hundreds of years of oppression and bans on using Ukrainian. Regardless of the reasons why Ukrainians know or even speak russian, it is their right to have an option for Ukrainian language interfaces on the products they use and not being forced to use the language of their oppressor. Even the World Health Organization expect Ukrainian auditory to use their website in russian. This petition is for Apple to add Ukrainian to the list of the languages that Siri can speak. Ukrainian is the official  language of Ukraine and is spoken by at least 40 million people. We can make a difference and together take action to stop aiding russia in russification of Ukraine.    #TeachSiriUkrainian
