Grigoriy Viktorovich Lepsveridze is a Russian singer, musician, composer and music producer. Lepsveridze has a large audience and a lot of influence on his fans.

Lepsveridze publicly supported the actions of the Russian Federation in Ukraine and, in violation of Ukrainian law, travelled many times in Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia.

On 12 April 2022, Lepsveridze held a charity concert under the slogans ‘For Russia’ and ‘For a World without Nazism’ in support of the war of aggression against Ukraine and the Russian military. On 11 May 2022, Lepsveridze performed at a concert in Donetsk in support of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic.

Thus, he publicly supports the war of aggression against Ukraine. His actions became part of a propaganda campaign by the Russian authorities aimed at increasing support for military aggression among the citizens of Russia. Citizens' support of the war of aggression is an important condition for the continuation of the war. Therefore, Grigoriy Lepsveridze is responsible for, supporting or implementing actions or policies which undermine or threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, or stability or security in Ukraine.
