Participation in Russian political protest movement
Participation in Russian political protest movement
Mikhail Novitsky is a regular participant of the protest movement in Russia. From the middle of the zero's he constantly played at meetings of the democratic opposition in St. Petersburg, where he performed critical songs of his own devoted to the Russian authorities, especially Russian President Vladimir Putin. His song “Putin, skiing, Magadan” in recent years has become the unofficial anthem of the protest movement in St. Petersburg. Putin's regime cancels his concerts in Russia regularly because of irreconcilable political position of Mikhail Novitsky.
