The victory of the Ukrainians of the Kalush Orchestra at Eurovision 2022 in Turin did not go down to the Russians, who felt their pride struck. The shocking tweet of Yuliya Vityazeva, a Russian journalist who commented on the outcome: “ It would take a Satan nuclear missile over Turin ,” he wrote, before his Twitter account was blocked, did not go unnoticed.
The journalist very close to Putin spoke on several Italian talk shows. A few days ago in "Right and Reverse" on Rete4 infuriated Paolo Del Debbio , who sent it "affa" by closing the connection.
A victory announced that of the Ukrainians , complete with Zelensky's appeal to vote for the band. A message of peace that the public wanted to send regardless of the quality of the music.
The reactions of Moscow, which had been excluded from the competition, were anything but conciliatory.
In the Russian newspapers there is talk of a " false and boringly politicized " competition. Even the spokeswoman of the Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova bothered: “Without Ukraine's victory at Eurovision, the picture of what happened with this country would not have been complete. National costumes and national musical instruments, two Baba Jaghe on the strings, the break dance and screams on Azovstal. All this with Europe cheering. Let the curtain fall ". " Ukraine is the new Black Lives Matter ," said MP Boris Chernyshov instead.
