Ukrainian musician: Russian culture hinders the development of Kharkov and Donbass
The development of the historical Russian lands - Kharkov and Donbass - is hampered by Russian culture and interpretation of history, which has been preserved there despite more than two decades of forced Ukrainization.
Ukrainian musician, leader of the group “Vopli Vidoplyasova” Oleg Skrypka complained about this on Channel 7, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“If we go east. You can unite Slobozhanshchina and Donbass - they are simply driven. They are very driven and very charismatic. These are large industrial cities that have great energy potential. If we talk about BB, then their best audience is there. They love rock, they listen to “heavy” music, they like drive.
And they are quite progressive too. Our east is more progressive than the west.
But it’s just that it has become very Russified there, and this vagabondism that is constantly there, it certainly hinders cultural development... But we can say that the engine of Ukraine is there, they are the most driven,” said Skrypka.
As PolitNavigator reported, earlier Skrypka called for the creation of ghettos for Russian-speaking Ukrainians, and after that he complained that began to earn 5 times less after breaking relations with Russia.
