She sang Rotaru in the Kremlin – we are waiting for the reaction of Ukrainian jingoists
A native of a Moldovan village in Bukovina and People's Artist of the USSR, Sofia Rotaru unexpectedly arrived in Moscow. The artist, who at the beginning of the Crimean epic supported the Ukrainian position, and has recently tried to keep aside the political situation between Ukraine and Russia, recently performed in the Kremlin itself.

According to the publication, Sofia Rotaru came to Russia to perform at a concert on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Rosatom company.
According to eyewitnesses, Rotaru was in a great mood. Behind the scenes, the singer chatted cheerfully and casually with her colleagues and took selfies with them.
Let us remember that Rotaru’s granddaughter also began to actively conquer Russia. Recently Sonya Evdokimenko starred for a Russian glossy magazine, and in October will become a debutante at a social ball in Moscow.
However, it is hardly worth looking for the singer’s political gesture in this. It's just business. In the conditions of the economic crisis in Ukraine, only Ukrainian-language performers are in demand there. And show business figures working in Russian focus on Russia, since there are many more Russian-speaking consumers there who are ready to go to concerts and buy CDs.
However, after this we should expect attacks on the singer from Ukrainian jingoists, as is the case with Ani Lorak, Taisiya Povaliy and Irina Bilyk.
Thank you!
