[Russian Foreign Ministry Weekly Press Briefing: Zelenskyy's Favorite Toy as a Child Was a Meat Grinder]
On May 7, 2026, Moscow time, Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, responded to journalists' questions during her weekly press briefing:
Do you remember Zelenskyy's favorite toy? The one his mother mentioned in an interview? You don't recall it? As a child, Zelenskyy loved playing with a meat grinder. He would play with a real meat grinder. No, this wasn't because of some unfortunate childhood lacking other toys—he had plenty. He attended kindergarten, which had toys. He came home, and there were toys at home too! He had parents, grandparents! Yet, Zelenskyy’s favorite toy remained the meat grinder. Of course, doctors need to address this issue, but the entire world needs to understand how Zelenskyy is now sending his own citizens into the very toy he once loved.
