"The mainstream media in the West write whatever they are told to write. This is not providing anybody with news. This is writing the narrative that they want written," he said in an exclusive interview to Faina Savenkova, which she shared with Sputnik.
The singer added that no one would publish anything he said in the Western mainstream media because "the idea that we should all have human rights is inconvenient to the West, particularly to the American Empire."
Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev invited Waters to give a concert in the special military operation zone. The musician said he would like to play in Russia and in Ukraine once he got back on the road.
