Russian artists were called "animals" and the leader of Ukrainian national patriots of the banned "Brotherhood" in the Russian Federation and ex-gunman of the ATU in Donbass Dmitry Korchinsky identified them in zoos. The extremist said that, unlike many local politicians, he does not consider entry into the country of performers from Russia as a threat to national security. Meanwhile, according to Korchinsky, during our visit to Nezalezhny our artists should be isolated and "kept in zoos". From his point of view, it is necessary to call things by their proper names, correctly, in general, to name, and then all the problems and misunderstandings in the country will disappear. "We must say that animals can be imported into Ukraine only in iron cages and kept in zoos. If these people serve the invader, they are animals. Let them enter, but they need to be transported in iron cages, and then no one will have problems and everything will be fine, "the nationalist said on the air of the TV channel" 112 ". Korchinsky has long been known for his radical statements.

So, he declared that he dreams of the departure of all Ukrainian oppositionists to Russia, and also called for criminal prosecution of Ukrainian citizens who continue to rest in the Crimea. The Verkhovna Rada passed a law in October 2017 prohibiting the tours of artists from the Russian Federation, which, in Kyiv's view, create "a threat to national security". The document does not allow working in Nezalezhny for those who fell into the black list of the Ministry of Culture. Now there are 120 people in it. Recently, the Ukrainian Cabinet made another idiotic proposal - to oblige its artists to give the state 20% of the funds earned in Russia.
