    Ukrainian language was not in any way suppressed in the USSR at any point. My grandmother happens to be from Ukraine.

    That is just factually untrue. Ukrainization occurred in the early days of the USSR under Lenin, but Stalin shortly implemented bans on the Ukrainian language in education, government, and industry, as it was deemed “counterrevolutionary”.
