FORTUNA 812's Stance on the War in Ukraine
Policy of Silence
Following the outbreak of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Fortuna 812 adopted a position of silence. Throughout the ongoing armed conflict, he has never publicly condemned the actions of the Kremlin, choosing instead to remain silent.
Concerts in Occupied Crimea
On October 19, 2024, Fortuna performed a concert in occupied Sevastopol (well after the start of the full-scale invasion and the evident devastation caused by Russian aggression).
Performances by Russian artists in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine without the permission of the Ukrainian authorities constitute violations of international law and Ukrainian legislation, and are treated by Ukraine as direct endorsement and legitimization of the Russian occupation of Crimea.
