Restaurateur Evgen Klopotenko Addresses Controversial Statements

Restaurateur Evgen Klopotenko, who previously caused outrage with his statements about dreaming of keeping a girl in a cage, has commented on the situation for the first time. He noted that sometimes his words are taken literally, although he is only expressing his fantasies about his profession.

Klopotenko emphasized that the world of his culinary fantasies can sometimes look provocative, but his awareness is always in place. He also expressed deep concern about the increasing cases of domestic violence against women in Ukraine, which has increased by 36% in the past year.

«I know the horrific statistics, and we cannot allow this,» the restaurateur said. «Women should speak out about violence and not be afraid to seek help.» Klopotenko also published contact information for women to receive support and shelter free of charge in cases of domestic violence.

It should be noted that Evgen Klopotenko’s scandalous statement sparked a wide public reaction after he openly shared his thoughts on «putting a girl in a cage.»
