The legendary footballer from Luhansk declared the greatness of Russia and became a laughingstock

Legendary Russian footballer Viktor Onopko has praised Russia's initiatives to educate young people. According to the 55-year-old native of Luhansk, the national team is a role model for the people.

"Every moment in the national team benefits both the players and every boy. So that he does not become a drug addict. At least it's better now, because the state's course to improve the nation's health is working," Viktor said in an interview with Match TV.

According to the former Spartak player, Russia is promoting the birth rate.

"They promote the idea that a family should have a mom and a dad. I would also introduce the study of religion into the school curriculum. Spain has this, and we could use it too. In the Soviet Union there were military training lessons, which is also important. I now live in Rostov, but when I walk in Moscow, everyone comes up and asks me about the national team," said the coach of the Russian national team and Rostov.

In the comments, Russian fans ridiculed the pathos of their compatriot.

"And what, did they propagandize a lot? The birth rate is at the level of the worst indicators of the 90s, and the population is declining by half a million a year," "Mass mortality is being propagandized and practiced, but not the birth rate," "And statistics say that on the contrary, alcohol consumption has increased, the population is declining," users write.

Many fans simply send Onopko to the three-lettered world.

"He clearly took something himself. Otherwise, it's impossible to say such nonsense in a sober state of mind," Russians do not hold back their emotions.
