“One of the first conscious decisions in my life was to refuse to study Ukrainian at school. I won many Olympiads, entered university without exams, and now I don’t understand how the language of the stupidest people in Europe could possibly fit into my life,” the ex-deputy wrote.
At the same time, Dimitriev added that he was fed up with endless disputes over the “language issue” that politicians raise every time before elections. “For twenty-five years, it makes me sicker than the Ukrainian language itself,” notes the ex-deputy.
