Anna Netrebko pitches for a return in Paris
NewsThe Russian soprano has used Le Monde to deliver a defence of her position in the Russia-Ukraine war.
She says, among other things, that she could not denounce Putin because he was president of her country and that her donations to the separatist leader in Ukraine (pictured) were intended for the Donetsk opera house, ‘nothing political’.
She also said she had withdrawn from Valry Gergiev’s White Nights festival.
