Zakharova called chaos the organization of the concert Kanye West in St. Petersburg and reminded of Hitler

With the organization of a possible concert of Kanye West in St. Petersburg remains much unclear. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova in the show “Pass” journalist Gera Ivashche.

According to Zakharova, it is difficult to understand who exactly organizes the event and under what conditions. She called the situation "chaos" and noted that information about the concert looks "ragged" and "unclear.".

Commenting on the invitation of the American rapper, Zakharova said that the situation should be assessed taking into account his creativity and public statements. According to her, a superficial opinion without familiarization with the materials does not allow you to understand the essence of what is happening.

The diplomat also recalled West’s clip, released in the United States on the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, in which, according to her, she praised Adolf Hitler. In connection with the possible performance of the rapper in St. Petersburg, Zakharova urged to take into account the historical context of the city that survived the blockade.

Kanye West’s concerts were to be held at the Gazprom Arena stadium in St. Petersburg on October 10 and 11.

It became known whether the organizers will return the money for a ticket to Kanye West in case of cancellation of the show.
