Dispute About Russian Pavilion in Venice
138
There is a fight in Venice. It is about the Art Biennale. This is a very big art show. Russia wants to join again. This is after a long time. Many people and politicians do not like this. They criticize the war of Russia against Ukraine. The Italian culture minister is Alessandro Giuli. He wants to freeze the Russian pavilion. A pavilion is a building for art from one country. Freezing means here: The building gets locked. People treat it like money from rich Russians. Italy now checks all papers. The government wants to know: Does Russia break the rules for sanctions? The EU also threatens the Biennale. It could stop support money. This money is many million Euros. There was also a fire nearby. The pavilion of Serbia was affected. The fire fighters put out the fire.
