The Russia’s Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko refused to answer the questions of the foreign journalist in connection with his poor knowledge of English.

      According to LifeNews, it happened when the official was leaving the press conference on the doping scandal in the Russian field-and-track athletics. “Speak English a little. I tell you how “speak English”, then the songs on YouTube” - Mutko stated.

      The Minister is known for his public statements in foreign languages. When he arrived at a meeting of the FIFA Executive Committee in Zurich in May, the Minister spoke to the journalists, using a mixture of English and Russian languages.
