Mikhail Baryshnikov: Do not punish Russian artists and athletes for war

#Ballet dancer says #culture should not be the collateral damage of #Putin’s #invasion of #Ukraine!

We have never seen anything like this before, except during Nazi Germany, Russia under Stalin and Mao during cultural revolution.
