Russia has placed a Ukrainian singer who won the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest on its wanted list, state news agencies reported Monday.
The reports said an Interior Ministry database listed singer Susana Jamaladinova as being sought for violating a criminal law.
The independent news site Mediazona, which covers opposition and human rights issues, said Jamaladinova was charged under a law adopted last year that bans spreading so-called fake information about the Russian military and the ongoing fighting in Ukraine.
Jamaladinova, who performs under the stage name Jamala, is of Crimean Tatar descent. Jamala, who performed at the Kennedy Center Honors in December, won the 2016 Eurovision contest with the song "1944," a title that refers to the year the Soviet Union deported Crimean Tatars en masse.

At least she is not in prison or dead. Those accused by Zelensky get dead or a visit from his goons and dumped behind bars with no trial never to be heard from.
Yet.
Many brave Russians oppose Putin. The prima ballerina of Moscow’s Bolshoi, Olga Smirnova, stated that she opposed the Russian invasion “with every fiber of my being”. She is 1/4 Ukrainian and left Russia soon after the full-scale invasion and now resides in the Netherlands.
LOL, you're describing Putin. Idiocy
Let’s agree they are both goons and we should make sure not one US dollar goes to either country.
Liar. Zelensky has done this to more than a few.
Your ilk lie so much and that is why people never believe what you say.
Russian stooges are so full of hate they get confused sometimes
You took the words out of my mouth.
The comment by deforest is amazing
Is it cognitive dissonance or just plain blinders
To talk of Ukraine doing those things(imagine there is some truth to it) in Reference to Russia putting out an arrest warrant for a singer for breaking a “russian” law that is all about suppression of free speech
Say war, go to jail, say something bad about military or Putin, go to jail, mass oligarch window accidents…. But look at Ukraine and zalinsky
Simply amazing
Going after singers is pretty retarded, even by Slav standards.
Please stop your idiocy, where is Zelensky's main opponent? Walking around free in Ukraine
Where is Putin's main opponents? Boris Nemtsov was assassinated and Alexei Navalny is in prison and was just sentenced to an additional 19 more years in prison
Петро Порошенко @poroshenko
This is our common fight for a rules-based world, freedom and democracy. Ukraine's victory in the war that was criminally unleashed by Russia will be our common victory, both for Ukraine and for the entire Free World.
Jailed Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny gets 19 more years in prison

The voice of reason arrives!
You mean like the FBI and CIA went after John Lennon?
So which singers have Zelensky put out arrest warrants for?
Right, so lets just send weapons to deter Putin's aggression.
Destroying our enemies military without one US injury or death is a worthwhile goal. US spent 5% of its military budget to destroy half of Russia’s capability with the help of Ukraine.
Remind me when Lennon was jailed and found guilty for singing a song.
Miss Crimea fined for singing patriotic Ukrainian song
Olga Valeyeva and friend, who was jailed, found guilty of ‘discrediting’ Russian army by singing Chervona Kalyna

Yup
A Ukrainian citizen singing a song about the Tartar expulsion in the USA.
How is this under Russia’s jurisdiction?
“At least she is not in prison or dead. Those accused by Zelensky get dead or a visit from his goons and dumped behind bars with no trial never to be heard from.”
Not to mention the 1000 or so AMERICANS rotting away in DC Central. Funny how this bunch NEVER seems bothered by that.
