The famous Ukrainian businessman and oligarch Rinat Akhmetov has made a rare public appearance. This time, he was captured on video on the roof of his own shopping centre, TSUM, in Kyiv. For some reason, he was handed an honorary Emmy Award statuette for a documentary series about his club Shakhtar called Football Must Go On. They say it will be kept at the club.
However, netizens were struck by the fact that the oligarch spoke Ukrainian in this video. He had rarely done so before, and probably never before. For example, the day before the full-scale Russian invasion, Akhmetov spoke in Russian about the need to defend the country.
