In a new low of diplomacy, the Ukrainian advisor to the President of the war-hit country made bizarre claims about India and China in an interview that came days after the successful organization of the G20 summit in Delhi. Mykhailo Podolyak said, “What’s wrong with India, China, and so forth? The problem is that they are not analyzing the consequences of their steps, these countries have weak intellectual potential, unfortunately.”

Mykhailo Podolyak further said, “Yes, they invest in science. Yes, India has launched a lunar rover presently and is now trekking on the surface of the Moon, but that does not indicate that this country fully comprehends what the modern world is about.”

The two countries that were once invaded by more powerful enemies, then transformed to nuclear powers with front row seats to the world stage don’t understand anything about the modern world, unlike the once powerful Soviet republic that now gets couped, invaded, and manipulated by the CIA and FSB for decades

Ukrainian Embassy in Delhi stated that it was his personal opinion

Love when my personal advisor goes on national TV and spews his garbage, and suddenly he’s no longer a representative of my government

Podolyak accused Russian propaganda outlets of taking it out of context to distort the meaning

PUTLER MADE ME LOOK RACIST BY PUBLISHING A VIDEO WHERE I CALL A BUNCH OF ASIANS GENETICALLY STUPID!!

He defended his statements saying, yes China and India have regional geopolitical goals, but global geopolitics is more complex. Doesn’t address the “low intellectual potential” part though.

After the Ukrainian ambassador to Germany praised Bandera and justified his massacres, the Ukrainian government recalled him, apologized to Germany, Poland, and Israel, said the ambassador’s views didn’t reflect the government’s views, then promoted him in a high level domestic position
