“According to the SBU, the singer publicly supports the actions of the Russian Federation, as well as glorify persons involved in hostilities against Ukraine”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
“The attacker is in the circle of the Kremlin -controlled variety performers of Russia, who publicly support the actions of the Russian Federation, as well as glorify persons involved in hostilities against Ukraine. To do this, Dronov regularly performs at concerts and mass actions aimed at supporting Putin and occupation groups of the aggressor country, ”the message reads.
The SBU reports that at the end of 2022 the person recorded a video message, in which he “heroned representatives of armed formations of poxes against Ukraine, and also recognized the lawful armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, started in 2014.”
It is also reported that in February 2023 Dronov was on the temporarily occupied part of the Left Bank of Kherson region, where he performed at the concert “in support of the Kremlin regime”.
The security services informed Dronov in absentia about the suspicion of denial of the temporary occupation of part of the territory of Ukraine, the recognition of lawful armed aggression against Ukraine, started in 2014, as well as the glorification of representatives of the armed units of the Russian Federation committed by the use of the media.
Currently, the singer has not publicly commented on the suspected suspicion.
In early July, the YouTube administration blocked channels of a number of Russian singers and artists who actively support the war in Ukraine. Among them are shaman, Gregory Leps, Pauline Gagarina, Oleg Gazmanov and Yulia Chicherina. The reason for the blocking were restrictive measures imposed against Russian singers of the United States and the European Union within the so-called 14th Package of Sanctions.
