In Ukraine they are doing something stupid by banning Russian artists from entering their territory.
About this in ether Russian performer and musician Andrei Makarevich, who had previously repeatedly spoken out in support of Maidan protesters, told Komsomolskaya Pravda radio.
The publication asked whether it was normal that almost half of Makarevich’s colleagues were included in the so-called “Peacemaker” list and were not allowed into Ukraine.
“No, I think this is stupid. They do a lot of stupid things. We do a lot of stupid things and there are a lot of stupid things done there. They and I are terribly similar. Because we lived in the same country for many years. The techniques are the same, the logic is the same. Such a Soviet one, unfortunately. In general, it’s high time she grow for both us and them. I hope that this will happen one day,” said the musician.
He also said that he did not give a concert in Donetsk because the DPR authorities did not want to invite him there.
“On the other hand, I would really like for the unrest there to stop completely, for the people who shoot and are uncontrollably to leave. And then I will be happy to congratulate them on the end of this stupid, useless war,” Makarevich noted.
“Do you mean the DPR defenders?” the journalist asked.
“I mean everyone who shoots there,” the musician replied.
“That is, do you mean shooting from the Ukrainian Armed Forces?” he was asked.
“From any side,” Makarevich emphasized.
“Seeing a portrait of Putin in the corridor of Radio KP, Makarevich was surprised: did he come to you too? And I took a picture in front of him,” reports “KP”.
