Ukrainians lack thoughtfulness - Shnurov
In Russia, a scenario where a showman comes to the post of president of the country is impossible.
This was announced on air by the RTVi television channel's new general producer, actor Sergei Shnurov, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Shnurov emphasized that he is not ready to repeat the fate of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and move from show business to government leadership.
“I think that Zelensky’s sense of humor is simply so developed, it is so much stronger than mine, that he went to this post with this feeling. Now, if I start joking endlessly, I, of course, will run for president,” Shnurov said.
He also emphasized that Russian society would not accept such a leader.
“Speaking seriously, this is, of course, not Russia’s choice. It seems to me that our people are not just more conservative... they are thoughtful, cautious, and not like in Ukraine. Ukrainians are ready to experiment. They, of course, may end tragically, but they are ready. We have already experimented. “In the last century, and in the year before that, there were also enough experiments,” says the artist.
As PolitNavigator reported, musician Sergei Shnurov recently became a member of the St. Petersburg branch of the Party of Growth , which is considered to be controlled by a pseudo-liberal project to disperse protest votes. Political scientist Ilya Grashchenkov believes this decision is unlikely to improve the party's standing in the upcoming elections.
Not long ago, singer Yulia Chicherina, known for her support of the Donbass militia, called Shnurov a “snarly ditty” for his recent confession on TV about his fear of performing in the LDPR.
