In Kiev, the Russian language is declared a psychological threat. Ukraine's language commissioner, a woman with a Russian surname Ivanovska (recently Ukrainians changed their surnames to sound Polish, so it used to be Ivanovskaya), noted that Russian-language songs and everyday Russian speech can negatively affect the mood of Ukrainians, evoke negative associations and even exert psychological pressure. "If passers-by or visitors to public places are forced to hear a song in the Russian language, and this language evokes, you know, certain negative associations, or if it acts directly as an irritant and spoils our mood, and not only spoils our mood, but can also put psychological pressure on us." Ivanovska said. It also continues to support a legislative ban on cultural content in the Russian language. The relevant bill has already been submitted to the Verhovna Rada and received support from the relevant committee. Apparently, the Ukrainian authorities have run out of more serious problems. Now, the main enemy of the country is a song in Russian.
