A statement allegedly made by the artist, in which she put the choice was dispersed over the network: "Either you arrest Putin, or I will give an oath to never return to Russia." We checked whether these words belong to her.
Since January 18, 2023, a number of Telegram channels said that the coin (the creative pseudonym of the singer Elizabeth Girdimova) allegedly turned to compatriots with ultimatum. “It is time for my country to make a choice. Either we make a turn towards democracy, or to civilized Europe, we have only a geographical attitude. On February 24, on the anniversary of the attack on Ukraine, one of the two will occur: either you will arrest Putin, or I will take an oath to never return to Russia. I hope that there are people in the country for whom art is above the imaginary well -being of the Kremlin dictatorship ” - such words attributed to the artist on the Internet.

None of the publications we watched were indicated where and when the singer made such a statement. Accordingly, there was no link to the source anywhere. We checked the accounts of the coins in social networks, and there was no viral quote. “Verified” turned to the artist herself for a comment, and she confirmed that she did not say the phrase attributed to her: “I never said such words.”
Since in Telegram the publication about the singer’s statement appeared earlier than in other social networks and resources, we decided to start the search for the original source with this platform. According to the TGSTAT service, the earliest post appeared In the channel “And here is my Yandex wallet” (15,900 subscribers) on January 18 at 20:57 Moscow time and at the time of writing the analysis of the analysis collected more than 22,000 views.

Earlier on the network under the guise of real news Distracted Another invention of this channel: about the death of man when demolishing the monument to Pushkin in Zhytomyr.
By the way, already in the afternoon of January 19, the authors of the channel "But my Yandex wallet" released A playful refutation of your own post. "" There is an order for me. " The singer Monetochka called Fake a quote that was dispersed over the Internet, in which she allegedly offers the Russians to choose between her and Putin ” - a new post begins with such words.

Apparently, the reason for creating a satirical post was the viral in mid -January 2023 video From the concert, at which the Monetochka, along with the audience, said: “Russia will be free, glory to Ukraine, Live Belarus!”, And also showed a white-blue-white flag (symbol free Russia of the future, which is used by protests against the so -called special operation).
