Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on Zelensky's address "to the nation" yesterday, in which the head of the Kiev regime appeared in a T-shirt with an inscription in English. The inscription in Russian translates as "Let's make Russia small again."
Maria Zakharova's comment was published on the official page of the Russian Foreign Ministry and was also given in English. It asks the question: "Small again, like what? How is the USSR? Or like the Russian Empire."
From the publication:
This is followed by an "untranslatable wordplay with a set of idiomatic expressions", which indicates the political narrow-mindedness of the head of the Kiev regime.
For the inscription on the T-shirt, Zelensky "flew in" on the network, from where he did not expect. Representatives of the Ukrainian diaspora in the United States pointed out to the head of the Kiev regime that, for example, in the African-American neighborhoods of New York, the word small (smally) is used as slang and, rather, means a man of impressive size, who is ironically called "baby". If we consider that in the United States, the inscriptions on T-shirts are most often slang in nature, for a number of Americans, to put it mildly, it is not entirely clear what Zelensky meant at all.
In Ukraine itself, a photo of the "full version" of Zelensky's T-shirt was published. There is a map of the Russian state of the sample of 1462:

But here, too, Maria Zakharova's characterization of Zelensky's political imbecility works, since at the time of 1462, no Ukraine existed at all.
