De-Russification

De-Russification

Derussification is the policy of the governments and others directed to reverse Russification. De-Russification took place in newly independent countries after the collapse of the Russian Empire in 1917; in non-ethnic-Russian regions of the Soviet Union itself in the 1920s; in Romania in the 1960s; and most recently in different degrees, speeds, and intensities across the newly independent states that arose after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
