":::And what was the official language of the Red Army in 1944? I am really looking forward to te end of this, because your arguments are becoming increasingly disingenuous. All military maps (read all maps) of the Moldovan SSR were printed in Russian, maps being considered secret documents. If you really must go there, all republics of the Soviet Union had two official languages. Its even on the Soviet state crest!  ♠♥♦♣
