00:20Thank you for joining us.
00:37It's a super hypocrisy that they are participating.
00:40I mean, they tell that art is beyond the politics,
00:44but they are using art as a weapon in hybrid war in Europe.
00:49So this is absolutely insane that they are here,
00:52and I think no one progressive could accept that.
01:11I'm saying they should have included the US of A
01:14in that list of countries excluded
01:22because it's because of the politics of hate and war
01:27and all that that's been going on now for too long.
