This was just a chance, and the performance itself was planned for a long time in the repertoire, they assured the Kremlin Palace.
In the Kremlin, on the anniversary of the start of Russia’s aggressive war against Ukraine, composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s ballet “Swan Lake” will be presented. This was reported on the website of the Kremlin Palace on Friday, February 10.
As the press secretary of the Kremlin Palace, Konstantin Yaroshevsky, said, the date was a coincidence, and the performance itself was planned for a long time in the repertoire. He also confirmed that the ballet was not scheduled to be released that day.
“No, there are no such plans. I understand what you are implying, but it is not connected at all,” said Yaroshevsky in a comment to the Daily Storm.
As you know, the ballet “Swan Lake” became a symbol of the collapse of the USSR. On August 19, 1991, only the broadcast of this performance was shown on television instead of the planned telecasts, while the putsch of the State Emergency Committee was taking place in Moscow.
Earlier on Friday, the media reported that before the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine, Moscow plans to hold a rally-concert with the participation of Russian President Vladimir Putin. It is expected that up to 200 thousand people will gather for this action on February 22 in Luzhniki.
