As does Zelensky
No surprise here. Last summer, he caused major outrage by submitting a bill on changing Ukraine's iconic "Tryzub" (trident) coat of arms into an overly complex abomination (images below the quoted text):
https://www.istpravda.com.ua/columns/2021/07/13/159831/[English translation of the most important passages from the Ukrainian original - Dazhbog]
Despite its ancient origins, the Tryzub easily fits in with the minimalist aesthetic of the 21st century, can easily be copied and is highly recognizable.
...
Any attempt to "improve" the Tryzub by adding depictions of people, animals, plants and other subjects and declare it the "Great Coat of Arms of Ukraine" is frankly tasteless and absurd.
In addition, Ukraine is neither an empire nor a federation [i.e. not Russia - Dazhbog] and doesn't need to replace the historical and true CoA with a made-up "big" one.
The idea of a "Great CoA" was included in the constitution on the insistence of the communists, who deliberately sought to diminish the importance of the true CoA of Ukraine, the Tryzub.
...
This is about the direct threat of eliminating the Tryzub, humiliating our national symbols and self-degrading the Ukrainian state.
...
The Tryzub is the living symbol of our state tradition and national unity: the sign of the princes of the Kyivan Rus [the medieval polity from which Ukraine derives their state tradition - Dazhbog], the CoA of the Ukrainian People's Republic, a symbol of the Ukrainian independence struggle and the CoA of modern Ukraine.
Judge for yourself!
Tryzub:
"Great CoA":
Against this backdrop, it is hardly surprising that he would aesthetically side with Russia again:

...
On May 14, 1771, a cornerstone for the new cathedral was laid. The design of the future building was inspired by the St Clement's Church in Moscow. In Spring 1778 the altar was consecrated in honor of Our Lady of Kazan, though the construction wasn’t completed yet. On September 27, 1780, it was reconsecrated in honor of Dormition. The ceremony was attended by the general Pyotr Rumyantsev.
...
According to Filaret Gumilevsky, the free-standing Alexander Bell Tower was built in the aftermath of Napoleon's expulsion from Russia "to express the people's gratitude to Alexander I".
...
The cathedral was restored in the late 1970s and reverted to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church [...of the Moscow Patriarchate, i.e. the local branch of the Russian Orthodox Church - Dazhbog] in 2006.
If Zelensky (Jew) is already unreliable in terms of his politics, in an aesthetic sense he is a straight up Russian agent!
