"IT IS NOT RUSSIA WAR, IT IS PUTIN'S WAR..." - ACTOR AND COMPOSER VIJAY ANTONY'S LATEST POST GRABS ATTENTION!
Home > News Shots > WorldAs Russia continues to attack Ukraine, actor and composer Vijay Antony has sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin.
War
Russia has strongly opposed the decision, citing Ukraine's willingness to join the European Union. Following this, President Putin presented a request to the Russian parliament for permission to conduct a special military operation in Ukraine. Parliament also gave its approval. And then, Putin declared war on Ukraine on February 24.
This was followed by a fierce battle between the Russian military and Ukrainian security forces in Ukraine. The United Nations says more than a thousand people have been killed and many more injured. Ukraine also claims that 30 million people have so far sought refuge in neighboring countries as a result of the war.
Vijay Antony
Vijay Antony, one of the leading composers of Tamil Nadu, has made his mark not only in the music industry but also in acting. The first Tamil film to feature his music was Sukran. Vijay Antony, who has composed music for a number of films since then, has also acted in films including Pichaikaran.
Anger
In this context, on his Facebook page, Vijay Antony commented on Russia's attack on Ukraine, saying, "One man's power greed is massacring the people of Ukraine. This is not Russia's attack. It's Putin's attack."
Putin has been widely criticized by various world leaders following the President's announcement that Russia would wage war on Ukraine. In addition, countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany have imposed sanctions on Russia. They also froze the assets of Russian businessmen in their home country. It is noteworthy, however, that Russia still continues to invade Ukraine.
