Prikhodo is also taking potshots from Panaiotov, who holds a Ukrainian passport and tried out for both the Russian and Ukrainian Eurovision spots (he came in second in Ukraine and was disqualified from the Russian contest for "not being patriotic enough"). "The fact that she won is a farce," he says. "I have nothing against her personally, but her performance is nothing to applaud." He says he won't be cheering for either Ukraine or Russia.
