意大利官员和Navalny的遗孀反对俄国指挥Gergiev的意大利音乐会, Italian officials and Navalny's widow oppose Russian conductor Gergiev's Italy concert, citing ties to Putin.

意大利文化部长Alessandro Giuli和俄罗斯反对派领袖Alexei Navalny的遗孀Yulia Navalnaya批评邀请俄罗斯指挥员Valery Gergiev到意大利那不勒斯附近表演。 Italian Culture Minister Alessandro Giuli and Yulia Navalnaya, widow of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, have criticized an invitation for Russian conductor Valery Gergiev to perform in Italy near Naples. 普京总统的亲密朋友Gergiev因不谴责俄罗斯入侵乌克兰而遭到西方的回避。 Gergiev, a close friend of President Putin, has been shunned by the West for not condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Giuli警告说,这次音乐会可被视为对俄罗斯的宣传,而Navalnaya则敦促取消音乐会,以避免让普京政权合法化。 Giuli warned the concert could be seen as propaganda for Russia, while Navalnaya urged its cancellation to avoid legitimizing Putin's regime.
