Since yesterday, the confrontation between Euromaidan activists and the current government has seriously escalated in the Ukrainian capital. Dozens of killed and thousands of wounded are reported; barricades are burning on Independence Square. Many politicians, athletes and even the Pope have already made a call to stop the bloodshed. They were joined by music stars.

One of the first to comment on the situation in Kiev was the singer Lolita Milyavskaya. Her daughter and parents live in the Ukrainian capital, but now the artist is ready to transport her relatives to Moscow. “I communicate with my family every day and I understand that I want to take them out of there more and more,” said Lolita. - I was in Kiev four days ago. What I see now is a great disaster. Now I roughly understand what happened during the 1917 revolution - barbarism, nationalism! When schools were closed for some time, my daughter was very upset. Theaters are closed, my Eva is an avid theatergoer, she goes to all performances. Basically, mother and daughter are sitting at the dacha and are afraid to travel to the city center."

The famous conductor Vladimir Spivakov, on the other hand, is ready to perform in Kiev, despite the ongoing conflict.

In the near future, the Moscow Virtuosi are planning a concert in the capital of Ukraine, and they are not going to cancel it. “I do not refuse this concert, but if the Kiev side decides that it is impossible to hold it, then we will simply postpone it to another date, because this is not the case that was during the Chernobyl tragedy. True, then there was no civil war, we came to share their grief with the people. Now the situation is a little different, so I'm ready to go,”the conductor told Heat.ru.

Meanwhile, the former guitarist of the Vopli Vidoplyasov group, Alexander Pipa, was one of the victims of the riots. He was attacked tonight, during which the musician broke his leg. According to the Ukrainian press, Pipa was attacked by soldiers of the Berkut special unit.
