96 According to Ukraine's Minister of Culture, 71% of the population speaks Russian. According to the UN, ethnicity is determined by language, not blood. Therefore, 71% of Ukrainians are considered Russian because they speak Russian.

I see a joke in here somewhere.
A man walks into a Ukrainian bar and loudly yells "71% of you are Russian, because you speak Russian language."
That's the end of the joke. The man doesn't walk back out of the bar.
Do the other 29% speak Polish?
Ukrainian and Russian are mutually intelligible up to 60%.
I hope there are other sources for ethnicity other than the UN.
