Zelensky responds to petition to strip Potap of state honor

Ukrainian President Zelensky has responded to a petition signed by over 25,000 citizens seeking to revoke the 'Honored Artist' title from Alexey Potapenko (Potap). The petition likely stems from Potap's wartime conduct or perceived pro-Russian stance, though specifics are unconfirmed. This reflects ongoing domestic political pressure on cultural figures in Ukraine amid the war.
