WATCH // Bjork declares independence for Pussy Riot
Dear folks,
Here comes a statement in defense of Pussy Riot:
As a musician and a mother I would like to express I fiercely don't agree with them being put to jail because of their peaceful protest performance. They are currently standing trial and facing seven years in prison for this.
In my opinion the russian authorities should let them go home to their families and children.
I would like to invite Pussy Riot to join me in a particular song on stage: which was written for all enhancement of justice ( you can guess: once , which one)
Warmth, Björk
