Singer Alina Pash, the elected representative of Ukraine, has been accused by the Ukrainian website Peacemaker of crossing the border towards Russia illegally. Following her trip there, she was added to the list of “supporters of Russia”. After the storm, her representatives claimed that her visit there was legal and received official permission to cross the border, but it was later revealed that the document was forged. Pash eventually announced on her Instagram that she was retiring from the competition.

As you may recall, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced early Thursday morning an attack in the Donbas region under the definition of “special military operation.” Moments after Putin’s declaration, the Russian army began bombing Ukraine, and at the same time the Russians announced that infantry had been deployed in Mariupol and Odessa, Ukraine, by sea. In doing so, the main concern of the past two weeks, according to which Putin planned an invasion of Ukraine, came true. At the same time, the Russian president has made it clear that he does not intend to occupy Ukraine.
