“Carol of the Bells - Ukrainian Bell Carol”

If they sing it in Russian, they get arrested.

But then that’s what ethnic cleansing is...

Several people in Russian-annexed Crimea have been punished under administrative arrests for performing the “Oi u luzi chervona kalyna” song at a wedding, the “suspilne.media” news website reported on Wednesday.

According to Suspilne, citing the media in Crimea, a court in Bakhchysarai held the organisers and participants of the party ‘administratively responsible’. The owner of the restaurant was sentenced to 15 days in administrative arrest, the DJ and the dancer 10 days, and the mother of the fiancé five days. Two people were ordered to pay fines.

Crimean beauty queen fined by Russian authorities for singing patriotic Ukrainian song October 5, 2022

 A Crimean beauty queen has been fined 40,000 Russian rubles (around $680) by occupying Russian authorities for singing the patriotic Ukrainian song “Chervona Kalyna,” according to Russian state media and pro-Russian regional authorities.

Olga Valeeva, who was named Mrs Queen Beauty – Crimea 2022, was spared a jail sentence because she has children who are underage, Russian state news agency TASS reported on Monday.

A spokesperson for the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Crimea said in a video that it identified a video online in which “two girls sang a song that is the battle anthem of an extremist organization.”

It said that the pair were detained on suspicion of “committing illegal actions aimed at discrediting the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as well as publicly displaying prohibited symbols.”

They were subsequently found guilty by a court, the ministry said, and Valeeva’s friend was sentenced to 10 days detention.

My wife is a Ukrainian Russian speaker, and you are wrong as you have been on everything since February. There are tens of thousands of Russian speakers fighting to liberate the Donbas from your criminal Hammer and Sickle flag wavers.
