Vaikule later went on Russian national television, where she said her answer had been misinterpreted and what she meant was that the law forbids her from going to Crimea, not that she would not want to perform there.

When asked by the anchor, whether she would perform in Crimea if no Latvian law forbade it, Vaikule answered positively.
