The incident reportedly took place in Lviv.

The provocateur first filmed the woman listening to the church service in Church Slavonic and then addressed her: "Why are you listening to the divine service in Russian in Lviv?"

"Why can't I? Who are you? God?... I know many languages, I listen to whatever language I want," the woman replied.

She asked him how many languages he knows and offered to communicate in French or Polish.
