Zelensky's wife decided that Russians are angry because they envy Ukrainian culture
The Russians have never had and never will have such large-scale cultural figures as the philosopher Grigory Skovoroda or the primitivist artist Maria Primachenko, so they allegedly destroy Ukrainian museums in impotent rage.
The wife of the President of Ukraine, Elena Zelenskaya, stated this on the Ukraine 24 TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Do you continue to search for yourself, the answer to the question. Why? After all, the majority found the answer after seeing the face of racism in Bucha. But there are nuances in which this face is revealed more through the example of destroyed cultural objects, cultural heritage, and museums. A few days ago we saw Museum Day, which we should celebrate. Why do you think they are destroying our culture?” – asked the journalist.
Zelenskaya responded that the Russians do not at all consider Ukraine a state that should have “its own consciousness.”
“Many of them believe that we are some part of their society, and we just invented something for ourselves. But our museums, our art and culture, our songs and literature prove that this is not so. Therefore, they want to destroy it first of all, in order to destroy our national consciousness.
They don’t have Primachenko, they don’t have Skovoroda and never have. So they want us to think that we didn't have them either. But that won't happen. That’s why I was angry in the first days when, literally in the second week, the museum in Ivankov was destroyed. I was very upset that the paintings were lost, but fortunately they were saved,” said the first lady of Ukraine.
