“The country is falling apart, and we are talking about banning Russian content” - expert
As long as an aggressive minority rules the roost in Ukraine, no one will ever invest anything in Ukraine.
The chairman of the public council under the ministry on issues of “temporarily occupied territories and internally displaced persons,” Donetsk migrant Gennady Borisichev, said this on the air of “Magnolia-TV,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
During the program it was discussed a story with two nationalistswho landed on the Kyiv-Lutsk highway in protest against the fact that the bus driver refused to turn off the Russian series. The event had wide resonance – from the dismissal of the driver to demands for a complete ban on Russian-language content or imposing an excise tax on it.
“What is the absurdity of the situation: three healthy men are sitting, TV viewers are watching us, cameramen, the editor of your program. What we are discussing: two women, out of emotion, presented unreasonable demands to the driver, and now in the media space in Ukraine they are talking about - let’s ban Russian content.
Sorry, of course, the country is falling apart, we have problems with Hungary and Romania in Transcarpathia, there is a war in Donbass, and we are talking about Russian-language content. What then can we say about the Russian-speaking soldiers who defend Ukraine?” – said Borisichev.
Next, the studio showed a story where the director of the carrier company tried to justify herself about what happened.
“We are amazed by this action of the driver; it is unclear why he behaved this way. Where the Russian-language film on the bus came from is also unclear to us, because our company provides each bus with flash drives with Ukrainian audio and video material... They have been suspended from their obligations and a dismissal order is currently being prepared,” said the director of the company, Oksana Grib.
“I understand a girl whose boyfriend died (one of the nationalists was driving from the funeral - Ed.), this is a tragedy, but I also ask you not to stoop to the level of the Papuans, or some Zimbabwe, where we will run around with sticks and knock bananas off palm trees,” the settler commented.
“Look what the representative of the carrier company is doing: they are so intimidated in the media space, and the so-called nationalists, who often make money from this and have nothing in common with the nationalists, that she says that we have flash drives with Ukrainian content, we We don’t understand at all how this happened and so on. Look at this girl, do you believe even one word she says?
I don't believe it because people are scared. And as long as in the XNUMXst century a small group of people runs around with batons and tambourines after people who are considered objectionable, neither investment nor anything good will come to this country,” Borisichev added.
