This morning, Ukrainian singer Ivan Dorn posted a message to his followers, especially addressing people in Russia, knowing that the information circling in Russia paints a different picture from the reality.

Today my country woke up from explosions. Today, the governmental authorities of the Russian Federation started a full-scale war against my country. And now I am appealing to the Russians, for whom my word, I hope, are still meaningful. I urge you to stop this catastrophe. I call on you not to participate in this murderous war. We do not need anyone, we want to decide our fates by ourselves. I also call upon my Russian colleagues, who have their own audience. Please tell them, that we don't need anyone. Convey the message, that Ukraine is an independent, sovereign state. Please, let's stop this disaster together. Do not be silent. My dearly beloved Ukraine, I'm with you.

Latvian folk band Tautumeitas sings a Ukrainian song, stating that the country has its own culture, language, people and borders, which should be respected.
