So he answered the question whether there will be restrictions on the part of Russia on the use of such a uniform if the Ukrainian national team gets into the quarterfinal match of Euro 2020 in St. Petersburg.
Earlier, the head of the Ukrainian Football Association Andriy Pavelko presented a new uniform for the Ukrainian national football team, in which the team will play at the European Championship.
On the form, in particular, there are outlines of the country with the Crimea in the composition.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called it a desperate artistic act.
The diplomat also drew attention to the "nationalist chants" that "will delight the spectators of the European Championship in football."
In her opinion, this is an attempt "by the state Kiev propaganda to consolidate in the public consciousness a slogan that many in Ukraine and abroad associate with the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, Bandera and their crimes during the Second World War."
