“I cannot be in Belarus because my life and my freedom are threatened by the people who are now in power there, about whom I have already said - rudiments. Which temporarily occupied my homeland. Therefore, I remain free for Belarus, I live here, but the Motherland is with me. I influence Belarus without necessarily being there. The assembly point for Belarusians is right here,” Mikhalok said in an interview with the Ukrainian Hromadska TV.
He also said that due to support for the Ukrainian Euromaidan, he is now afraid to perform in Russia.
“I cannot be in Russia, because, in principle, they will most likely kill me there. They will trample it very quickly and carefully. For example, a concert in Samara - a public organization called “Sabre-Cossacks of Samara” is opposing me, damn it. Two hundred sabers say: “We will come under the club.” These, you know, fucking runners with sabers. And what should I do with them? If I don’t have a saber, I’m somehow ready to fight with these guys... I saw that they were louts and alcoholics there, so I’ll give the fuck to someone. But I don’t want to fight with a man with a saber - what if he cuts off not my finger or my hand, but something important. Well, to hell with him, my ear - I will be a new hero, Bezukhov, but what if he cuts off something wrong. How will I be in the group without this? They’ll kick me out,” said Mikhalok.
