Zelensky complains that foreigners do not know where Ukraine is
Ukraine is known abroad only by its once outstanding athletes - football player Andrei Shevchenko and boxer brothers Vitali and Vladimir Klitschko.
A colleague of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky on the show “Kvartal 95”, artist Yevgeny Koshevoy, said this on the NASH TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to Koshevoy, so far when foreigners meet, they wonder what Ukraine is and where it is located.
“It irritates me that our country is not known abroad or in Europe. I would like them to know the name of the country – Ukraine. And sometimes people just ask again: “Where is Ukraine?” And you tell them: “Shevchenko... well, Shevchenko, football.” - “Ahh, okay.”
They only know it from athletes. Klitschko, Shevchenko. I want that when they ask you about Ukraine, you say “I am from Ukraine”, and people say “Oh, yeah, you are cool.” That's what I want. I want Ukraine to become one of the strongest European powers,” Koshevoy said.
