Russian opera singer Anna Netrebko will not be performing in Tallinn in November. This information can be found on the Piletilevi website.

The concert featuring Netrebko and Yusif Eyvazov was scheduled for November 14. The organizers have promised to refund the ticket costs.

Netrebko's pro-Putin website has not yet removed the announcement of her concert in the Estonian capital. The date of her performance in Tallinn has already been rescheduled twice.

Prior to this, Netrebko's concert in Liechtenstein, which was scheduled for August 26, was canceled.

Earlier, it was reported that Netrebko would not be performing at the Municipal House in Prague in October. This decision came after the coalition of the Prague City Council expressed disagreement with Anna Netrebko's concert, stating that she is on Ukraine's sanctions list, and her performance in the Czech capital is inappropriate due to Russia's actions in Ukraine.

Netrebko, who has been living in Austria for a long time, previously supported Vladimir Putin during the presidential elections. She has also been photographed with flags and representatives of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine and donated a million rubles to the collaborator Oleg Tsarov.

After the start of Russia's military invasion of Ukraine in February of last year, Netrebko faced a boycott of her concerts in the West. About a month after the start of the war, Netrebko publicly condemned the conflict and stated that she had met Putin only a few times in her life.

In July 2022, Anna Netrebko's concert in Stuttgart was canceled without the possibility of rescheduling. Prior to that, she was released from the Metropolitan Opera in New York.
