No, never. No other languages were banned. Russian was more prominently pushed in the other SSRs as a second language. But it's not really different to how much English is forced on everyone today.

Tell them that’s not how burden of proof works. It’s their job to prove their allegations. If they make a claim without evidence it can be refuted without evidence.
