In Moscow angered by the decision of the security service to deny entry into Ukraine to the representative of the Russian Eurovision-2017 Yulia Samoilova.
“This is another outrageous, cynical and inhuman act of the Kiev authorities,” Interfax quoted the state Secretary, Deputy foreign Minister of Russia Grigory Karasin.
In addition, the special presidential envoy for international cultural cooperation Mikhail Shvydkoi called the error the decision of the SBU.
“From my point of view, is a mistake. I don’t want another way to qualify, as work at the diplomatic office. I think that is nonsense. If a country holds an international event, it must provide access to all participants”, – said Shvydkoi.
“In General, sanctions against actors, culture, a “black list” of culture is, from my point of view, a very serious folly, which should not be used in the international practice”, – he added.
