DISINFO: Anna Karenina was banned in Ukraine because of Russian language

SUMMARY

Leo Tolstoy was banned in Ukraine because of the language of the aggressor.

RESPONSE

No evidence given. Anna Karenina in Russian language is not banned in Ukraine. It was only one local theatre in Khmelnytskyi that couldn't agree on the date when Anna Karenina could be played in the city. Further debunking by the Insider.
