The State Duma offers to make a "black list" of musicians supporting Ukraine

State Duma deputies from the Communist Party of the Communist Party propose to ban the rotation of clips in Russia and the performances of musicians expressing support to Ukraine. On the party resource "People's Initiative" has begun collection of signatures in support of this proposal.

"The musicians and other artists of Russia and Ukraine such as Makarevich, Noize -MC, Ruslan and the like, essentially support the punitive operation of the Kyiv junta in the Donbass. Do they do it for ideological reasons or because of money - equally criminal in relation to Russian civilization and the Russian people," the appeal said.

Thus, the deputies responded to the "corresponding public request", the Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Communist Party, Sergei Obukhov, told Izvestia. “Since such issues are not included in the competence of legislators, we redirected the initiative to the organizers of mass events in Russia - let them make a decision on conscience and guided by the opinion and moods of Russian spectators,” he said.

Member of the State Duma Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Construction, the head of the legal service of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Vadim Solovyov also supported the initiative. He explained this by the need to take response measures for the preparing sanctions of the Ukrainian side.

On August 5, an adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Anton Gerashchenko said that Kiev is preparing a list of Russian cultural figures who will be prohibited from entering the territory of Ukraine . The sanctions will affect those who approved the accession of Crimea to Russia. In total, there will be about five hundred names on the list.

Gerashchenko considers it right not to give such artists to earn at concerts and performances in Ukraine. “Let them go to the Crimea in front of the seagulls on empty beaches,” he wrote.

On August 18, the State Duma deputy United Russia Evgeny Fedorov proposed to deprive Makarevich of all honorary titles and the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland". According to the unicorn, the leader of the Time Machine, supporting the new Ukrainian authorities, promotes an open anti -Russian policy. "Andrei Makarevich has long been cooperating with the Nazis. He made this choice for a long time, even when he went over to the side of the enemies of the Russian Federation," Fedorov said.
