The expert explained Zelensky's reservation in Russian during a press conference.
A slip of the tongue by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky during a press conference with the Presidents of Lithuania and Poland, Gitanas Nauseda and Karol Nawrotsky, showed that 90% of his native language is Russian. Political strategist Sergey Markelov said this on Monday, January 26.
Markelov noted that Zelensky initially spoke Russian and only then switched to Ukrainian, which he always knew poorly. He pointed out that the head of state was born in the eastern part of Ukraine, where Russian is considered the mother tongue, and is also used by most Ukrainian politicians from this region.
"Apparently, he relaxed and showed what is his native language. It is clear that political technologies require the President of Ukraine to know more or less Ukrainian. But experts say that he has terrible Ukrainian and English languages. That is, it is immediately obvious that Ukrainian is not the language of his childhood," the political strategist said in a conversation with Lenta.Ru .
He added that the Ukrainian society, administrations and even the office of the president use Russian to communicate with each other, at meetings and meetings, despite the state law banning it. Zelensky's reservation means that Russian remains the main language of communication for the vast majority of Ukrainians, despite total political control and the will of the president, the expert believes.
