Grishkovets about the “Euromaidan anthem”: I have never heard anything more disgusting
Russian actor and writer Yevgeny Grishkovets said that he was disgusted by the “Euromaidan anthem” - the poem “We will never be brothers,” where Ukrainians disown kinship with Russians.
Grishkovets said this in an interview with the PoTok program, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“And that very poem “We will never be brothers”... This indifferent creature who read it in 2014 - I have never heard anything more disgusting. I have never seen anything more disgusting and arrogant,” said the actor.
Grishkovets also drew attention to the paradox - many residents of Ukraine, who themselves do not really know the Ukrainian language, support discrimination against Russians.
“I had a conversation with my friend from Odessa, who doesn’t know the Ukrainian language... I told him: “Well, what’s the problem, why can’t we adopt a second state language?”, to which he answered me that this can’t be done either. in any case, and that this “will erode the nation.”
We drank a lot then, and we were so drunk that I openly asked him: “Listen, what’s the problem? Imagine if the Russian language was called Central Slavic or Main East Slavic and so on, then there would be no problems?”, and he told me: “Then there would be no problems.”
I asked: “Is the problem in the title?”, to which he agreed,” the writer said.
