"We cannot track who is filming us". Olga Sumska stood up for Taras Tsymbalyuk after the scandal with the Russian language

Honored Artist of Ukraine Olga Sumska commented on the scandal involving her colleague Taras Tsymbalyuk. The actress called the situation an unpleasant incident and emphasized that Ukrainian celebrities should control their every word.

She shared her opinion with journalist Natalia Tur for Lux FM. "We can't track who is filming us at a party, although today we need to control every word. Tarasik, he is a loyal Ukrainian, he is a patriot," Sumska explained, defending Tsymbalyuk.

The celebrity added that actors should educate citizens and carry the narrative of love and loyalty to the Ukrainian language. "Well, how can we forbid me to shout at people, to yell, to educate?" the actress said. "I was born in a Ukrainian-speaking family, I have been Ukrainian-speaking since childhood. Taras is the same way, he is 100% Ukrainian."

As a reminder, in July 2024, a video was shown on the network where the star of the TV series "To Catch Kaidash" and "Dr. Baby Dust. A New Life" is vacationing in the company of scandalous blogger Anna Alkhim, who ignores the war and despises Ukrainian soldiers. In the video, you could hear songs in the language of the enemy, as well as Russian from Tsymbalyuk himself.

The actor later apologized for the incident, calling on influencers to "be vigilant." The celebrity also accused Ukrainian journalists of poor "PR" and a "lame level of professionalism." Read more in our article.
