Bohdan Beniuk answered how to resolve the language issue once and for all and who should definitely switch to Ukrainian

Ukrainian actor Bohdan Beniuk has suggested how to resolve the language issue once and for all and who, in his opinion, should forget about the language of the occupying country in the workplace. The artist emphasized that this problem has been haunting Ukrainians for centuries and that a full-scale war with Russia could help them abandon the Russian language.

Bohdan Beniuk explained that it is necessary to start with the realization of the murderous and hostile energy of Russia and its state language. He expressed this opinion in an interview with the "Naodyntsi" project.

"If a person realizes that his enemy carries the energy of murder and speaks a certain language, then it is clear that I will not speak the language of the enemy. It is very clear," the actor began.

In his opinion, Ukrainization should start with adult Ukrainians who influence future generations: educators, teachers, parents, and civil servants.

"They must be the first to switch. You don't need to touch people in their 70s and 80s. They are already living, and they will not renounce their position. We need to think about who will live in this country: Ukrainians or people with double standards," said Bohdan Beniuk.

The movie star cited an example of how the Russian language was fought against in Lithuania.

"Little Lithuania, there are only 2.5 million of them, and more than a million of them were Russian speakers. They acted very simply, although the whole world was choking on the rage coming from Russia. They imposed fines. There was a language police. Little by little, the Russian language was pushed out by such repressive methods," the actor said.
