Analyst asked to quit live transmission over language policy
"Let me speak the way I want to speak"
(Web Desk) – Political analyst and blogger, Yuriy Romanenko walked off a live discussion on Ukranian Zik Television for being asked to speak in Ukrainian in place of Russian language.
"We agreed that [you would speak] Ukrainian," Mr Drozdov said, to which Mr Romanenko responded: "Let me speak the way I want to speak," bbc.com quoted the blogger.
After he was told that it was a matter of television’s policy that the participants express their views in Ukrainian, he resisted to which the host had to ask him to leave the studio.
British media outlet quoted the host: “OK, then I would like to ask you to leave this studio," said Mr Drozdov.”
