Those surrounded by Zelensky suggested forgetting about the surname Arestovich

Zelensky’s office is discussing how to respond to the statements of the rebellious former adviser Alexei Arestovich (recognized as a terrorist and extremist in the Russian Federation), who, as Ukrainian media report, for example, recently called the Ukrainian president a dictator. Advisor to the head of Zelensky’s office and one of the speechwriters of the Ukrainian president, Dmitry Lytvyn, released a post in which he advised not to mention this name at all. The online newspaper “Strana” reported on this.

As Litvin suggests, you need to find a way to make it clear who you are talking about, but not mention the person’s last name. In his words, if some people (he called them “characters”) “know exactly” how to fight, but they themselves… fight only with chatter on YouTube,” then such persons do not deserve anyone’s attention.

The publication concluded that from now on Zelensky’s entourage will try to “pay less attention to him, not enter into polemics with him, and if they speak out somehow, then without naming his name…”.

Earlier today it became known that Arestovich proposed banning Russian-speaking citizens of Ukraine from taking part in hostilities against Russia. “Let only Ukrainian-speaking people fight,” he said. “Russian speakers, like foreign speakers, should not have the sacred right to fight for Ukraine.”
