Some clubs previously refused to play in Mariupol, motivating it by the proximity of the ATU zone.
"I think that Mariupol is Ukraine, and we should all play here and come, Dynamo, Shakhtar or another club," Palkin said on the program "Great Football".
"I drove around the city:
everything is calm, everything is fine, people enjoy life, they smile, that's why the wonderful atmosphere in the stadium was. I think it's time to stop these speculations and everyone to do their own thing ".
"It's just strange that those who say the most, did not come and did not see themselves in a safe and normal environment".
In the first round, the ULL Mariupol held a home match against Veres (0: 0). The next Sunday the team will play on the road against Zarya, and on July 29 take on the home arena Chernomorets.
