According to the actor, his love for Russia lies in the culture of the country, and full-scale war is “huge nonsense”.
Actor Gerard Depardieu said that his attitude towards Russia has not changed even after the invasion of Ukraine. According to him, he is “still Russian”. The French cultural figure said this in an interview with the Augsburger Allgemeine.
He explained that his love for Russia lies in the culture of the country. Depardieu also noted that he tried to avoid the topic of the Russia-Ukraine war because “no one could say anything logical about it”.
The actress said, “Nothing has changed for me. I am still Russian. I love Russian culture. When I love a country, it always stems from its culture.”
Gerard Depardieu hated “the mixing of politics and acting”, adding that “war is a big bullshit”.
“I don’t want to talk about it any more: war is bullshit,” he summed up.
Note that at the beginning of a large-scale war, the actor said that “Russia and Ukraine were sister countries.” He called for an end to hostilities and the start of negotiations. In 2013, the guy will receive Russian citizenship.
On April 1, a French figure formerly known for his sympathy for Vladimir Putin denounced the Russian president’s actions against Ukraine, calling it insanity. But according to him, ordinary Russians are not responsible for what happened.
