A group of State Duma deputies intends to appeal to the Prosecutor General's Office The Russian Federation with a request to bring to justice the artists who organized the auction in support of Ukraine.

This auction is held with the support of Americans, more than 25 foreign agents participate in it. Among them are A.Makarevich *, M.Pokrovsky *, A.Bely*, B.Grebenshchikov *, "Monetochka", T.Lazareva *** and many others.

"According to the statement of the American operator of the event, this project, using art, in addition to raising funds, is aimed at spreading anti—Russian propaganda," says Piskarev.

He considers this a vivid example confirming the need to adopt a law on special accounts for foreign agents, which has already been signed by the President of Russia.

"Taking into account the participation of these Russian citizens in the project of undesirable NGOs, we will send an appeal to the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation to bring them to the responsibility established by law," the deputy concluded.
