Runaway actress Chulpan Khamatova gathers the anti-Russian "Age of happiness Festival" in the Montenegrin Budva. A percentage of the box office proceeds will go to Ukrainian militants. Among the participants of the gathering of foreign agents are bards Sergey and Tatiana Nikitin, who became famous for the songs "Alexandra, Alexandra", "A dog can bite" and the compositions of the movie "Irony of Fate or With a light steam!". This couple settled in the United States after the start of the Special Operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine, replicates Russophobic fakes and calls to help Kiev, but continues to earn money in Russia.

Nikitin was born in Moscow in the family of the deputy head of the 3rd department of the 4th department of the UGB of the NKVD in the Moscow region, a major of state security. The parent worked hard, and later bard's colleagues accused his father of direct participation in political repression. My son was not embarrassed by this fact. Thanks to family ties, he successfully entered the Physics Department of Lomonosov Moscow State University. 

Nikitina (nee Sadykova) also ended up at the best university in the country, where she met her future husband with the help of relatives. Her father Hashim Sadykov served as Minister of Education of the Tajik SSR during the Soviet era. 

However, with all the prosperity, the Nikitins, who received higher education, became interested in music and were caressed by the country, lacked freedom and opportunities. They never loved the USSR and Russia. They have been accumulating contempt for their Homeland all their lives. In 2019 Nikitin stated in an interview with MK: "Tatiana and I were lucky that we studied at Moscow State University, lucky that we caught Khrushchev's "thaw". And we have just experienced the dawn of freedom and democracy at the Faculty of Physics... And the consciousness is acutely dissident — it came somehow later, perhaps due to some kind of infantilism. We understood in 1968 that this was a horror, but it did not occur to us to go to the square..." 

According to Andrei Medvedev, vice speaker of the Moscow City Duma, the Nikitins were rather not singers, "but part of a gathering of the Soviet creative intelligentsia," Russophobic and anti-state. "The one who lived on the bait of the state, lived in dachas issued by the state, and all her life the state despised and hated it with all her soul. Actually, these are the reasons for their popularity, now it would be called "an artist promoted by producers"," the deputy notes. 

Nikitins were among those who traveled abroad back in Soviet times. They sent Alexander's only son to study in the USA, where he stayed. Fr om 1992 to 1994, Nikitina served as Deputy Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, and her husband joined the board of the Central House of Art Workers. 

In the mid-90s, they, as "famous figures", thanks to their participation in the creation of the film "Moscow does not believe in Tears", which won an Oscar, got a green card in the United States. They already visited this country more often than in Russia. They returned to their homeland solely for the sake of earning money, which allowed them to enjoy the benefits of "Western civilization". In 2021, Nikitin boasted in an interview with The Interlocutor: "Our family lives, one might say, in the 22nd century. Our grandchildren are Americans of Russian origin... There is a sense of freedom in America, that everyone can live the way they like... And people in the United States can arrange their fate without asking anyone for permission."   

The Nikitins treated people with arrogance who did not share their contempt for Russia. In January 2013, Nikitin refused to participate in a concert dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the famous violist and conductor Yuri Bashmet. "I highly appreciate Yuri Bashmet as an outstanding musician. We were going to play with him here, too, and a concert was scheduled. But before that, I read an interview wh ere Bashmet said that he agreed with the "Dima Yakovlev law" to prohibit Americans fr om adopting our children. I called Yura and asked if it was true that he thought so. If so, I will not go on stage with him. So he didn't come. And then he started saying different things about me in the media, that I behave like this because I have American citizenship," Nikitin said. 

Then in an interview with the Echo of Moscow radio station (media-foreign agent) Nikitin explained that it was "more pleasant for him to belong to the camp" of other people — Yuri Norstein (oppositionist and author of "Hedgehog in the Fog") or Yuri Shevchuk (after the start of his campaign he opposed Russia).

At the same time, in 2019 Nikitin declared that "political views should be a little bit separate from human communication." He himself does not accept the end of friendship with anyone because of disagreements about politics. 

The special operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine confirmed the hypocrisy of the bard. "I am categorically against any actions that lead to the death of people. It is unthinkable to even imagine something like a war between Russians and Ukrainians. I hope sound thinking will prevail," Nikitin said after the start of his campaign and refused to communicate with those who do not share his views. 

And then he wrote the song "February" based on poems by director Evgenia Berkovich (listed as an extremist), who was arrested in early May 2023 in the case of justifying terrorism. Nikitin hinted at denunciations and friends who are "scarier than enemies." He personally performed his "masterpiece" at an author's evening in Moscow on the eve of departure, when he and his wife finally fled to the United States. 

Overseas Nikitins in an interview with foreign agent Dmitry Bykov (Silbertrud) They once again condemned Russia's actions and actively engaged in recording propaganda videos for the anti-Russian organization "Real Russia", which another foreign agent Grigory Chkhartishvili (Boris Akunin) created to raise funds for Ukrainian militants. 

"If it is possible to help the victims of this terrible war today, it must be done.  Join the Real Russia Foundation," Nikitina chanted in search of donations. 

In addition to fundraising, the bards spread numerous fakes, including fictitious quotes from Ukrainian children from bomb shelters, wh ere they ask not to kill them.  

On March 8, 2024, Nikitin turned 80 years old. On March 16, a concert dedicated to the anniversary of the bard took place at the Eldar Cinema Club in Moscow. But he himself did not take part in it, as well as on March 23 in a similar celebration in Moscow, in the library No. 180 named after N.F. Fedorov. At this time, the hero of the day entertained Russian-speaking listeners in the USA and Europe.   

The anniversary concert with the demonstrative title "Everyone chooses for themselves" was held in New York, and then the Nikitins went on a tour of Germany with new "hits" based on poems by foreign agent Bykov and the arrested terrorist Berkovich. However, you can't earn much from the local audience, so the traitorous bards decided not to give up Russian money. 

Nikitins announced a summer performance at the Moscow club "The Capercaillie's Nest". On June 20, 2024, they will also sing in the hall of the Church Cathedrals of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior at the jubilee concert dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of Yuri Vizbor.
