Ukrainian singer made a scandalous statement on occupied Crimea

Украинская певица сделала скандальное заявление об оккупированном КрымеGalina armless considered normal for Ukrainians to rest in Crimea.

Ukrainian theater and film actress and singer Galina Bezruk, who recently shared with his subscribers in the network moving news, said, how was the Russian occupied Crimea and how it related to our fellow citizens.

She stated this in an interview.

Singer argues that in the annexed Crimea a good attitude to tourists from Ukraine, contradicting information in the media that they are not welcome there: “in General, this is not. First of all, there lives my family. Of course, I’m not going because of the political situation, to cease to communicate with them, it is not even discussed. This is my position, I have the right to support their loved ones. As for relationships… I don’t know, I’m not experienced with this. On the contrary, saw very many people in Kharkov met. They rest there, and everything is fine.”

At the same time armless noted that in Sochi (Russia), during the international song contest “New wave” in which she took second place, she did not feel contempt for myself because of the fact that she is Ukrainian.

“I want to tell you that in Russia, no matter where I was, here in Sochi, I’ve never felt… that even someone “khokhlushka” called that it would be not very nice. On the contrary, positive attitude. Everyone always asks for the family, just like that. I never felt any negativity. But from our countrymen who found out I went to Sochi, I feel it a lot more,” said the singer.

To the provocative question of the journalist whether it considers Crimea Russian, Galina armless answered neutrally: “You know how I had the feeling that they were an Autonomous Republic, and so it remains. I as a child went to Sevastopol. Then I also remember that the people there spoke in Russian and said: “here we Have a Navy,” “we Have family”, and then they considered themselves Russian. I remember that I wondered why people who live in the Ukrainian state, consider themselves Russian. For many, probably nothing has changed. For me, Crimea has been a bit offline, so probably.”
