Propagandists recently decided to rank Russian celebrities that continue to use the “banned” iPhone, prompting media representatives to inquire Anastasia Volochkova, a prima ballerina, about the type of device she uses. This question caused her to react with fury and she demanded to have a personal meeting with the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Lavrov.
Her statement “There are no bigger issues in the country?” was initially reported by the National Bank News.
The ban on the iPhone in Russia has sparked a huge debate among the public. On one hand, some argue that it is a violation of individuals’ freedoms and right to choose what products and services they want to use. On the other hand, others point out that such a ban could help prevent crime and malicious activities.
Regardless of what side of the debate one is on, it is undeniable that celebrities’ choice of technology has a huge influence on the public, and Anastasia Volochkova is a perfect example of this.
Currently, the ballerina is facing huge backlash from the Russian public for her decision to use an iPhone despite the ban. At the same time, many support her courageous stance and consider her a role model.
It is clear that the ongoing discussion about the iPhone ban in Russia is not going away anytime soon. It is likely that the issue will be brought up in the upcoming meeting between Anastasia Volochkova and Sergey Lavrov. Until then, the public will be discussing the matter and making their opinions heard.
