Olga Slegina was fined nearly $500 for supposedly “discrediting” the Russian military with her compliments of the Ukrainian leader.
A 70-year-old Russian woman has been charged for supposedly “discrediting” the Russian military after she described Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as “handsome.” A Moscow court slapped pensioner Olga Slegina with a 40,000-ruble fine for comments she made last December, according to thehuman rights center.
“Zelensky is a handsome young man with a good sense of humor, everyone laughed at his jokes earlier,” Slegina reportedly said. She went on to ask a local resident if Ukrainians in the area were known to shout “Glory to Ukraine.” Police showed up at Slegina’s door just a few days later and accused her of expressing support for Ukraine.
