At the height of the Maidan and on the eve of the loss of Crimea, a Ukrainian Nazi musician appeased Medvedev
Famous Ukrainian rock musician Oleg Skripka, leader of the group “Vopli Vodoplyasova,” fell into a stupor when he was asked about Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev attending the group’s concerts. So, on TV channel 112, TV presenter Alesya Batsman asked the musician whether Medvedev often attended his concerts.
Violin then paused and began to get confused in his words, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
"How do you know? Ohh... Are you collaborating with someone? Once upon a time, when the Winter Olympics were being prepared in Russia... There was such a company to advertise this festival. Oh, the Olympics. And there was Red Rock's festival in the company. We were the headliners at this Red Rock's. We didn’t understand why we got there, because everyone there was Russian. And it turns out that it was under the patronage of Medvedev, and we played this festival, and once in Sochi we played this festival.
And our, our performance was staged in a very strange way, during the day. We say: “We are a smart team, we have to play later.” But it turned out that this was set up for Medvedev’s arrival. And it turns out he wanted to watch “BB”, he liked it, he danced. We performed and he left. It was obvious that he came to our performance,” Skripka said.
In addition, the musician admitted that he participated in the election campaign of the Russian Prime Minister, who was elected to the presidency of the Russian Federation: “We organized a car race from St. Petersburg to Kyiv, gathered Ukrainian and Russian teams. We traveled with concerts from St. Petersburg and reached Kyiv. There was such a scene - a Russian flag, a Ukrainian one, and Medvedev was also present there.”
