He said this at a meeting with education workers, commenting on the entry into force of the new law “On Education,” which has already become scandalous and criticized by seven countries, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“At recess, in the educational process. So that children can see that this is not a dry rule of law, but a living way of daily communication,” he noted.
At the same time, Poroshenko continues to assure that his proposals, like the law he signed, are in line with “European practice.”
“Ukraine has demonstrated and will demonstrate an attitude towards the rights of national minorities that is fully consistent with our international obligations and is in harmony with European standards,” the president emphasized.
However, social networks are already preparing for the worst.
“A flurry of denunciations against teachers is expected. The next requirement is to speak only Ukrainian in the kitchen and in bed,” writes Ukrainian political scientist Oleg Khavich on his Facebook page.
Let us remind you, as PolitNavigator reported, today a new version of the law on education came into force.
