Art critic, fashion historian, former host of the Channel One program Alexander Vasiliev commented on his departure from Russia. The video of the conversation in the podcast "Pearl" is available on YouTube.
According to Vasiliev, many often criticize him for his sudden departure from Russia, believing that the fashion historian emigrated after the start of a special military operation. However, the fashion historian recalled that he received French citizenship back in Soviet times.
"I ran away, that's right, but in 1982, back under Brezhnev, when you weren't born," Vasiliev said, referring to the podcast host.
He added that few people know about this fact of biography.
As reported by EADaily, Vasiliev, although no longer living in In Russia, he continues to give "wise advice" to Russian-speaking girls abroad.
"You don't need to get married. A good thing will not be called a marriage. Stay virgins until the end," he recently told his girlfriends who happened to meet him on the streets of Istanbul.
