Shame to Cyril & Methodius
Today Russian orthodoxs celebrate memory of the saints Cyril and Methodius, who create shameful cyrillic alphabet which separated Russian culture from the rest of Europe for nearly thousand of years.
Only after Peter The Great reign, when it became a custom for educated classes to learn at least one of European languages, Russia became major player in the European politics again.

Я извиняюсь, вы всё ещё помните, что речь шла о "shameful non-Latin alphabet which separated Caucasian culture from the rest of Europe for nearly thousand of years"?
По-моему, греки ничем от прочих европейцев не отличаются.

As to Greeks, remember - neither Cyrillic nor Glagolic alphabets are compatible with Greek the same way Polish is compatible with Latin.

И если уж латинизировать русский и близкие к нему языки, то на основе чешского алфавита, но никак не польского.
