The diplomat recalled how his childhood offended for the Ukrainian language

Andriy Olefirov told me this story from his childhood.

Ukraine’s Ambassador to Finland Andriy Olefirov in the childhood teased the “redneck” due to the fact that he spoke only in Ukrainian.

About it the diplomat wrote on Twitter.

“To seven years in the yard called me a redneck, because grandma Donbass taught only in Ukrainian. And where are they? And I’m here, working on the Ukrainian state,” — boasted Olefirov.
