Most Ukrainians can still speak at least some Russian as a second language. Russian functions as sort of a common language between Russia, the Ukraine, Belorussia, and other CIS countries sort of like how the EU uses "Euro English" as a common language.Ukrainian and Russian are two different languages. Similar, but different. A quick search showed that the native language of 2/3 of Ukrainians is Ukrainian, and a little under 1/3 have Russian and their native language.
