Russian Culture is Impossible to Cancel
In an exclusive interview with Sputnik, Russian Culture Minister Olga Lyubimova, responding to a question about attempts to eliminate Russian culture, noted the importance of preserving cultural ties between Russia and other countries.
According to her, certain negative manifestations of Russian culture, which used to take place in social media on the part of some political and public figures in unfriendly countries, are coming to an end.
"We all witnessed how the loud cries of a number of political public and political figures of unfriendly countries were picked up by social networks and made an incredible, offensive and painful concept of abolition of culture, Russian culture, how everyone again, it seemed so, at the level of social networks, said that they do not need Tchaikovsky," the minister explained.
At the same time, she noted, music by Russian composers continues to be performed in the world's most prestigious music halls, and the names of Pushkin, Tchaikovsky, and Prokofiev still appear on posters. No less important, in her opinion, have been the performances of Russian opera and ballet dancers, without whom, according to the minister, European cultural life would be incomplete.
