“For me, they are both Russian. As Rasul Gamzatov said: ‘In Dagestan I am an Avar, in Moscow I am a Dagestan, abroad I am Russian.’ You can shout – shout, love everyone. In Russia it is okay to be Russian, Dagestan or Avar. The main thing is to treat this with kindness. There is no need to hate anyone. Our great -fathers, by the way, died so that there would be no one who would allow themselves to hate someone because of their nationality.
Let us love everyone according to their nationality: Russians – because they are Russians, Avars – because they are Avars, Kumyks – because they are Kumyks. But first of all, you have to love a person. If he’s honest, he’s honest, if not he’s an asshole, and it doesn’t matter if he’s Russian, Chinese or anyone else. This is absurd – just like in Russia you cannot shout that a person is Russian,” Borshchev emphasized in an interview with RB Sport.
