Latvian composer and musician Raymond Pauls believes that Laima Vaikule has the right to decide herself whether to speak in the Crimea, says Delfi.

Pauls in a comment to Russian media also was surprised that someone is interested in his opinion on this issue. With Laima, he said, he sees very rarely and has not been on tour for a long time.

Recall, previously a great response was caused by Vaikule's statement about his unwillingness to speak in the Crimea. The singer said this at a press conference in Odessa. Lyme explained that she, like a European, is forbidden to visit the Crimea, where she will not go, regardless of the size of the fee, which she will be offered.
