💬Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters has criticized Western sanctions against Russian culture and sports:

"It's complete idiocy. And it just shows how these people's brains work. What good do you get from banning concerts that play Tchaikovsky's music or telling people they can't read Dostoyevsky? It's obviously crazy," Waters said.

He added that a similar situation has developed in sports, and wondered why the West does not introduce sanctions against, for example, Israel or the US.

"Didn't you notice that in 2003 they invaded Iraq and killed, we don't know, maybe around a million people?" the artist asked.

🔻Nearly three-quarters of U.S. voters say the country is headed in the wrong direction, according to a new poll conducted by NBC News. The poll, which was released on Sunday, showed that only 21 percent of voters think the nation is headed in the right direction, while 74 percent think the opposite.

Additionally, 58 percent of voters believe America's best days are behind it, while another 68 percent think the nation is currently in an economic recession.

About a third of the respondents said they believe the state of the nation will worsen over the next five years, the poll revealed. Just two percentage points more, or 36 percent, say they think things will get better in that same time period, and 21 percent said they think things will stay the same.
