Sofia Mikhailovna is from Ukraine, but the singer became popular back in the USSR when she performed her famous song “Chervona Ruta”. The artist was married to Anatoly Evdokimenko, who was also the director of her concert programs. At that time, Rotaru was a very loving person.
However, now the singer has a different opinion. Guitarist Alexander Levshin said that Rotaru was greatly affected by the death of her husband. The artist accepted the inspirations that started in Ukraine. Despite this, she continued to make money in Russia and quietly hated the country and people who made her a star.

In fact, Rotaru was the sole breadwinner for her family. In addition to her singing career, she gathered a business empire and it was one of her points Villa “Sofia” in the Crimea. The artist’s son Ruslan managed the building, and after 2014, when the peninsula returned to Russia, the singer’s company became Russian. The heir also organized celebrations for his mother after his father’s death.
Everything was fine with the Rotaru family until 2022 came. The artist and her son stopped their activities, thus showing their situation. But the heir of Sofia Mikhailovna was not going to fight for Ukraine. Together with his son, he tried to escape from the country so as not to end up at the front.

Ruslan and Anatoly Evdokimenko and several other men of military age wanted to cross the border illegally Ukraine and escape to Moldova. However, the violators were detained, and their action was made public. As a result, in their country the men were ordered to be punished publicly; they faced two to five years in prison.
However, everyone knows that everything is about money in Ukraine. Rumor has it that Sofia Mikhailovna tied all her ties and paid a lot for her son and grandson to be released. And, of course, she promised that this would never happen again.

In fact, the singer became a hostage of the Kyiv regime and literally made a deal with the devil when she saved relatives from a sad fate. Rotaru’s friend and colleague Nadezhda Babkina said that the singer was hostile to the whole story and of course he wants to return to Russia, but he can’t.
“She’s in a state of siege. It’s not up to her. She would be happy to lose him, but the family is there, everyone is there. Where will she go? She will want to return home, we all want,” said the artist.

Rotaru’s son and grandson were still able to leave Ukraine and settle in Europe. Granddaughter Sofia Mikhailovna, after recovering a little from what happened, said that 2022 had become a very difficult year for him. However, he believes that a better life awaits him in the West.
“I had to leave the country to start a new life. For more than six months I lived in the life of a real person, who taught me a lot and gave me a new perspective on what was happening,” said Anatoly Evdokimenko.

Wisely, the grandson of Rotaru did not reveal the place where he decided to settle, but he said, like his grandmother, that he would bring music, or instead of making, and even named a way out. However, every word Evdokimenko turned out to be a boast; nothing has been heard of the young man to this day.
However, the Ukrainians did not like Rotaru for her success in Russia, and after her son and grandson fled, the attitude towards the singer in Nezalezhnaya became even worse. A bad end and even accusations of treason were expected for the family of Sofia Mikhailovna. God only knows what the artist promised the nationals for the freedom of her relatives, but now she is clearly paying the bills.

It is no coincidence that the singer’s sisters give interviews left and right and tell how Rotaru helps the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to reports, her refusal to participate in the “Song of the Year” is a kind of boycott launched by the star against Russia, but everyone decided to keep silent about corporate events in our country .
The sister of the Ukrainian singer Aurika also said that Sofa is safe and in contact with her family. She said that the son and grandson of the famous artist tried to escape because they wanted to save their lives, thus proving that Nezalezhnaya was a source of problems for them, and not the most they prefer

“The boys don’t know what war is. None of them ever burned! We must call those who want to defend our Ukraine!” – says sister Rotaru.
Rotaru itself is located in sunny Italy; he settled on the island of Sardinia. Photos showing the Ukrainian flag appear on the artist’s social network, but there is an opinion that the singer cannot keep an account and that her granddaughter is doing it for her, taking notice how great her grandmother is.
The former Deputy Head of the State Duma, Roman Khudyakov, believes that Rotaru is very sick and cannot post such information, so there is no need to criticize her.

“Problems with memory and thinking, and for a long time he does not own his own social networks, property or money. Her children and grandchildren run everything,” Khudyakov said.
The Russians do not justify the “peasant”, but they believe that she deserved everything. The author’s style and spelling are preserved.
“Everyone complained about Ukraine, but how to protect the country, they fled abroad. Empty brothers… Now they will see what kind of system they live under,” said Lyudmila G.;
“All the children of Khokhlyak leaders and oligarchs live abroad, there were no obstacles for anyone to go and settle there, and Rotaru’s relatives were made scapegoats. Bastard Nazi Regime,” said Alexandra R.;
“Who is happy in Ukraine??? There is no answer,” said Lena Sh.;
“It is a fact that there was a Soviet singer and even a People singer in Russia, and now Nobody and Nowhere and no name!” wrote Alexander M.
Online Sofia Mikhailovna was reminded of everything – and lip sync songs, bad character, and attacks on the audience. The 77-year-old singer became a bargaining chip for Ukraine; it costs the nationalists nothing to ruin the reputation of the artist, not to mention the citizens the country sends to kill.
