In second place was the singer Larisa Dolina (10%), third place was shared by performers Anna Asti (real name - Anna Dzyuba), Valeria and Irina Allegrova (7%). Previously, Gagarina filed a lawsuit in the European Court demanding that the restrictions be lifted from her, under which it fell within the framework of the 14th package of EU sanctions against the Russian Federation. In the lawsuit, the artist listed the violations that, in her opinion, were committed by the Council of the European Union. The fact that the European Union imposed sanctions against Polina Gagarina became known on June 24. The restrictions affected singer Yaroslav Dronov (SHAMAN), as well as theater and film actor Ivan Okhlobystin. The European Council believes that Gagarina received benefits from the Russian government, and Dronov fell under the 14th package of anti-Russian sanctions for participating in concerts organized in the Kremlin. Artists are prohibited from entering EU countries, transiting through their territories, as well as any financial transactions.
