Oleg Skrypka, the leader of the Vopli Vidoplyasova group, admitted that he did not regret his numerous performances and participation in projects in Russia until 2014.

According to the musician, earning money there was the right decision, because he spent all the money on the development of Ukrainian music.

" I'm not the only one who did this. I know a few other good people who have invested so much in Ukrainian culture,"

After 2014, Skrypka and his group, like many Ukrainian artists, completely stopped their concert activity in Russia and focused on performances in Ukraine..

However, the artist was outraged that after the annexation of Crimea and the start of the war in Donbass, Ukrainians still continued to listen to Russian performers..

" Even in Lviv, Russian songs were still played in discos. And in Odessa, until 2014, half of the music was world music, and the other half was Russian-speaking. was at all. After 2014 there was only Russian music in Odessa. There was nothing foreign,"

Recall that Oleg Skrypka recently gave a powerful performance at the Kiev railway station.
