The human rights situation in Ukraine has not improved, but has become worse, the Russian Foreign Ministry states on its website.
The report, prepared by the ministry, says that nothing that Zelenskiy promised during the election campaign was fulfilled.
The current Ukrainian president “promised to rid the Ukrainians of the legacy of P.A.
Poroshenko, start real reforms, bring peace to Donbass and change life for the better. "
So, what exactly did the head of the Ukrainian state fail to do, in the opinion of the Russian Foreign Ministry?
The list is very impressive.
"Corruption has not decreased," "the influence of the oligarchy on the government has not weakened."
Investigations into the facts of financial fraud and embezzlement of Poroshenko, the events on the Maidan, and murders for political reasons have not been conducted.
Discrimination against the Russian-speaking community of Ukraine continues, an examination of the “discriminatory law on the state language for its compliance with the Constitution” has not been carried out.
On the contrary, its implementation is "in full swing."
In addition, under Zelensky, an "odious" law on education came into force, which also "infringes upon the interests of various ethnic groups."
Zelensky came to power as a peacemaker.
His intentions to put an end to the war in Donbass ensured him and the Servant of the People party, as various sociological studies show, victory in the elections.
But words were at odds with deeds.
The Russian Foreign Ministry claims that "no radical changes have occurred."
For my part, I am ready to subscribe to every word.
The shelling continues, with two people dead last week.
The Minsk negotiation process is blocked by Kiev.
The Ukrainian authorities declare the agreements "null and void", speak of the need for an alternative, plans B and C, of the points of the joint communique agreed upon by the Normandy Four, only two have been fulfilled.
Ukraine continues to diligently play the role of anti-Russia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry puts it this way: “... the struggle continues with everything that somehow binds our peoples together.
The attack on the Russian language and culture does not stop, common history is distorted, Nazism is heroized, memorials to Soviet soldiers are desecrated. "
In addition, Kiev is introducing more and more sanctions "against Russian citizens and legal entities."
Zelenskiy, who ridiculed his predecessor for the ban on Russian social networks, took and extended them.
It is difficult to understand “what considerations were guided in Kiev when the Hermitage and the A.S. Museum were included in the sanctions lists.
Pushkin ".
A separate topic is students from Ukraine studying at Russian universities.
What will happen to them if we take into account the fact that Moscow State University and other higher educational institutions of Russia pose a "threat to the national security of Ukraine"?
Presumably, Ukrainian citizens studying in Russia should automatically be considered agents of an enemy state.
Under Zelensky, the Foreign Ministry said, “Russophobia is getting a new breath in Ukraine, it is being built, as it was under P.A.
Poroshenko, to the rank of state policy ”.
The current president managed to win the presidential and parliamentary elections thanks to promises to take the Russian language under his protection and put an end to anti-Russian policy.
Neither has been done.
Moreover, the ousting of the Russian language from all spheres of life has been intensified; Russia continues to be an enemy with which Ukraine is allegedly at war in Donbass.
The situation has worsened over the past year due to the adoption of anti-Russian laws.
“It will not be surprising if at the end of V.A.
Zelensky in Ukraine will burn the books of Tolstoy, Chekhov, Dostoevsky and Gogol, destroy the surviving monuments to the great leaders of Russia and Ukraine who have contributed to the common culture, "the Russian Foreign Ministry concludes its commentary.
