It has become clear who will go to

It was revealed today that the list of candidates from Russia who may go to the "Eurovision" contest in Kyiv has been drastically reduced. Only two people remain on it - the winner of the "Voice" contest - Darya Antoniouk and the native of Zaporizhzhia - Alexander Panayotov.

Moreover, Channel One, together with the team of authors, has already closely begun working on the composition that will be presented at the contest in May 2017.

Fans' opinions regarding the candidates vary significantly. Some believe that the Ukrainian may bring victory to their country, while others are convinced that with such participants, the country faces failure. There are also those who think that Panayotov is not worth pitying, even if he is publicly booed in Kyiv.
