“The fact that our structures involved in this process refused to take part, I think that they did the right thing, because, in my opinion, today’s Kyiv authorities are not able to conduct events of this kind,” Putin said.
The President of the Russian Federation believes that Russians who wanted to watch Eurovision could do so on the Internet.
