Right but that's also hard to start a conversation with. Like if you ask them, "Hey is Chernobyl really that bad?" they might get offended. The average Ukrainian is not proud of that.

I worked with Ukrainian immigrants decades ago and found them all to be extremely easy to converse with. They do almost all the work for you and their sense of humour is top notch. TBH you really could ask that question and they'd laugh, make some quip, share their sandwich and next thing you know you're having dinner at their place tomorrow.

Yeah thats not a good icebreaker. Like, "Soooooo.... 9/11, never forget, right?"
