As Nina Mytrofanivna's body was being carried out of the Philharmonic, the crowd outside the building and nearby applauded. For 10 minutes, applause and shouts of "bravo" were heard, addressed to the legendary Ukrainian singer whose songs became the genetic code of Ukrainians.
In a comment to the media, Tonya Matvienko called her mother Ukraine and also admitted that before her death, the artist asked her not to cry at her funeral.
As OBOZREVATEL wrote, the scandalous comedy duo Kroliki was spotted in a line outside the Philharmonic. Volodymyr Danilets and Volodymyr Moiseenko, who supported Russia, appeared in public for the first time in a year and a half, wanting to say goodbye to Nina Mytrofanivna.
