Zhukov labels the scrapping of "Sector Gaz" track as foolishness

In the realm of Russian music, a contentious issue has arisen surrounding the banning of the musical group 'Sector Gaza'. The State Duma committee on the protection of the family, questions of fatherhood, motherhood, and childhood, headed by Nina Ostanyina, has taken notice of this matter.

According to reports from the Public News Service, Ostanyina has called for the banning and internet blocking of certain songs by 'Sector Gaza' due to their controversial content, particularly the use of obscene language in their lyrics. This decision has sparked a debate within Russian society, with some individuals questioning the move.

Sergey Zhukov, the lead singer of the musical group 'Hands Up!', is among those who voice their opposition. He believes that banning the hits of Yuri Khoy from 'Sector Gaza' is wrong and foolish. Another critic, Pavel Rudchenko, a producer and music critic, shares similar sentiments, believing that banning musical groups like 'Sector Gaza' can lead to even greater interest in them.

Russia, however, seems to love the performer Yuri Khoy, as stated. The popularity of the musician is evident, but the controversy surrounding his group's songs has cast a shadow over their success.

Elsewhere, the global stage has been set with telephone talks between Xi Jinping and Trump. Meanwhile, in a separate matter, a Moscow woman is suing a travel agency for 500,000 rubles due to a cancelled holiday in Dubai.

In a more economic context, the European Commission has proposed to use Russian assets to issue loans to Ukraine. This proposal, if implemented, could have significant implications for both countries and the global economy.

Nina Ostanyina, in her pursuit to address the issue of banning some songs of 'Sector Gaza', has announced her intention to personally deal with the matter. Her stance reflects the societal demand for works that correspond to spiritual and moral values, as she stated.

As the debate continues, it remains to be seen how the issue of banning 'Sector Gaza' songs will unfold in Russian society and beyond. The music industry, as well as the general public, awaits further developments with keen interest.
