‘It will work out – good, if not – that’s also fine’: Arestovich believes that Ukraine plans to launch an offensive regardless of Western aid
17.07.2024 08:17Ukrainian singer and showman Antin Mukharsky, also known by his stage name Orest Lyuty, has been abroad since March and has not updated his information with the Territorial Recruitment Center. He expressed that he does not want to go to the front because he is “scared” and “afraid.”
He mentioned this in an interview.
Mukharsky stated that he is currently in Turkey, where he plans to give concerts for Ukrainians living there, at the invitation of the embassy. He clarified that he has been abroad since March, for several months now.
When asked why he is not at the front, Mukharsky replied that he has the right to leave and deferment as the father of three young children.
“There are many questions about how I manage to leave the country. Well, first of all, I am still the active father of three minor children who are dependent on me. That’s one. Secondly, there have been no requests (from the Territorial Recruitment Center). We left Ukraine in March, so I haven’t had the chance to update my data at the TRC. I have yet to do this. And then I will wait to see how events unfold, and I will watch. I am not running away, I will say honestly,” said the singer.
Mukharsky, known for his militant-patriotic tracks mocking Russians and praising the deeds of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF), added that he does not want to participate in battles because he is “afraid.”
“You know, I served three whole days in the Vasylkiv Territorial Defense during the first days of the full-scale invasion. I almost killed an SBU officer; we had a friendly fire incident. Even now, when I remember that incident, my heart aches. I’m scared, I’m afraid. I’m a musician in military bands, and when something explodes nearby, I just fall down with my legs giving out… Yes, I’m scared,” admitted Mukharsky.
Previously, actor of the “Kvartal 95” studio and friend of Zelensky, Yevhen Koshevoi, explained why he does not intend to go to the front. According to him, he lacks military experience and proper training.
“Let many see me as a traitor, but my son will grow up with his daddy,” the actor stated.
