We prefer english, but some scandinavian will do. We don't allow other languages as we have no way of controlling what is being said etc., and it's not fun for non-russians to open up an intersting thread only to find out that it's content is in russian, etc. Also which is why we don't have danish threads as such.

Therefor - ENGLISH ONLY!
If you will allow, you can appoint a Russian-speaking moderator (with disabilities). You also understand that not everyone can communicate even minimal English?

Yes, but that doesn't mean we have to support every language in the world For the same reason that if you go into a supermarket in Malta you can't expect the salesperson to speak russian etc.
So our site is in english, and that's currently enough for us

It is your right and I just suggested =), but I think the more languages your asset is, the more people (customers) you =)

Well I've heard of it now....
Copy'd from the CIA website:
A Central Asian country of incredible natural beauty and proud nomadic traditions, most of Kyrgyzstan was formally annexed to Russia in 1876. The Kyrgyz staged a major revolt against the Tsarist Empire in 1916 in which almost one-sixth of the Kyrgyz population was killed. Kyrgyzstan became a Soviet republic in 1936 and achieved independence in 1991 when the USSR dissolved. Nationwide demonstrations in the spring of 2005 resulted in the ouster of President Askar AKAYEV, who had run the country since 1990. Subsequent presidential elections in July 2005 were won overwhelmingly by former prime minister Kurmanbek BAKIEV. The political opposition organized demonstrations in Bishkek in April, May, and November 2006 resulting in the adoption of a new constitution that transferred some of the president's powers to parliament and the government. In December 2006, the Kyrgyz parliament voted to adopt new amendments, restoring some of the presidential powers lost in the November 2006 constitutional change. By late-September 2007, both previous versions of the constitution were declared illegal, and the country reverted to the AKAYEV-era 2003 constitution, which was subsequently modified in a flawed referendum initiated by BAKIEV. The president then dissolved parliament, called for early elections, and gained control of the new parliament through his newly-created political party, Ak Jol, in December 2007 elections. Current concerns include: privatization of state-owned enterprises, negative trends in democracy and political freedoms, reduction of corruption, improving interethnic relations, and combating terrorism.
I hope that the administrators do not close this topic ... and Russian speakers are not little =)
or was it kazachstan?
