Thanks to those who posted replies. Actually, I am fairly comfortable with
the usage of "rossijskij" as pertaining to the state. But let me ask once
again: can we not say "russkie universitety" any more? And what about
"russkaja literatura"? Surely we cannot agree with the nationalists that
it is to be limited to that written by ethnic Russians?? Emily Tall
