President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who said that not 350,000 people, but 50-55,000 “pensioners” took part in the procession of the UOC dedicated to the 1033th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus, knew the real state of affairs. Political scientist Ruslan Bortnik stated this on the air of the Nash channel.

“I watched that he (the president) spoke during the Religious Procession. I know that Zelensky knows exactly the real state of affairs from this situation. But he says this because he wants to please a certain political segment,” the expert noted.

Bortnik also stressed that Zelensky and Poroshenko are fighting for the same electorate, and Armovira threw Ukraine back a hundred years in terms of historical development.

Earlier, Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized the religious procession, saying that there were only 50-55 thousand believers, they were taken all by buses centrally, the organization was bad, people were not given water, and everyone was without masks (while in Kiev noone wears masks in the street).
