I think that many in the Czech Republic know Russian!
Poor that few Russians knew Czech :-((

I know Russian just a little but I forgot a lot of words. Before the fall of communism we used to learn Russian compulsorily here in CZ.

Previously, the main misfortune of Russia was "advanced so******m", it is now corruption and red tape.
Good live in Russia only "new Russians" and officials... :-(

P.S. The Forum does not accept the word "s o c i a l i s m" :-)

Well, the thing is we have a censor on the word c-i-a-l-i-s as it`s often used by pharm`y spammers, so any word containing those letters unfortunately gets caught up in the censor.
