She can read and write just not Russian (Russian is the official language in the Ukraine, right?)

Her mother is Russian. Russian is widely spoken in Ukraine alongside Ukrainian.

Where she left the country to go to another country where Russian is commonly used and Geo has indicated that she knows Russian

I was born in the eastern part of Ukraine where it's more common to speak Russian.
In Jordan they teach us to write and read Arabic and English...
Me and my sister can poorly read Russian (a level of a second grader).
My father got a visa today and he's going there on sunday hoping he can convince her to come back... I really don't know what is he going to tell her, but he's the saddest i ever seen him and he just wants to see her home.
He'll be there for two weeks...
But i think if she gave him convincing reasons for not staying in Jordan, he won't pressure her (this is not a room for you to mock Arab culture, so please, save your comments for yourselves).
My parents are more understanding than the majority of parents i know, but it's still not an excuse for her way of escaping.
It was rude and selfish.

WTF?
Anyway Geo. I am very sorry. I hope your sister is okay. I can understand your sister wanted to run, but her way of doing so was rather selfish. If you're not amazingly well off, financially, she should not have taken the money that was meant to get her though college. Even more so, she should not have left you all to deal with the emotional strain of losing a family member. Even if your sister was trying to improve her life, it was not fair to any of you. Still, I am sure it will work out and everything will be okay. Hopefully your father can talk to her, and even more hopefully, maybe they can work something out so that both you and your sister will be happy.

Geo is her sister, and I think it is fairly clear that her concern for her sister is outweighing her judgment

Hopefully they can work something out that works for all.
