Description
Vietnamese singer Duc Phuc is crowned winner of Russia's Intervision song contest, beating artists from more than 20 countries. The contest has been revived as Moscow seeks to compete with a "decadent" Eurovision which it is banned from over its offensive in Ukraine. "I believe that this is a powerful statement from Russia," lead engineer Daria Nikulina told AFP. "If we are not allowed somewhere, we will implement the projects we need ourselves."
