Sorry, I didn't notice syllable reduction in her speech. I might be tone-deaf though and heard meaning instead of sounds. As for her pitch, she tries to sound soft and demure to elicit more information from those laborers. I believe she giggled at heart and tried to hide that fact when she wanted to open up the minds of those confused by propaganda people. It's sort of minor trolling but her cause was to test how far those people wanted to follow what television tells them to do, and actually I believe that most of the interviewees seem were able to crack Poroshenko's ruse. They are supposed to blame Putin for every kind of misfortune but actually they seem to be more astute observers.
