OREANDA-NEWS  Sergey Lazarev gave a great interview in the podcast of the New Radio "Nedud". In it, he spoke about his attitude to the international Eurovision song contest.

Lazarev has represented Russia at the competition twice and would not like to take part in it again.

"Moreover, for me this contest is closed again because it is a very political vote," Lazarev said.

Sergey Lazarev performed at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2016 and 2019. Both times the Russian singer took third place.

In 2022, due to sanctions, a representative of Russia did not participate in Eurovision. In 2023, the contest will be held in the UK again without a Russian participant.
