Imagine Dragons raised the Ukrainian flag at the concert: a gesture that caused a debate

The global rock group Imagine Dragons once again demonstrated its solidarity with Ukrainians by performing one of its most famous songs under the yellow and blue flag at the concert.

A gesture of support on stage

During Imagine Dragons' performance, a flag made of yellow and blue paper with the words "STOP WAR" appeared in the fan zone. Lead singer Dan Reynolds saw this poster and took it on stage with him and held it up during his hit song "It's Time".

Reaction of Ukrainians on the Internet

Despite the band's good intentions, Ukrainian fans online did not remain indifferent to the inscription on the flag. They criticized the wording of "STOP WAR, " suggesting that a more accurate call would be "Stop Russia" or even "Destroy Putin."

"Stop? How about 'quit'?" asked some users.

"It should be 'arm Ukraine' instead of 'stop the war, '" others said.

Support and gratitude

However, not all comments were negative. Many Ukrainians thanked Imagine Dragons for their constant support and efforts in raising funds for humanitarian aid.

"Thank you for inspiring people to stick together, help each other and fight for justice, " wrote in the comments under the video on Instagram of the fundraising platform UNITED24.

Continued support of Imagine Dragons

This is not the first time that Imagine Dragons have demonstrated their support for Ukraine. The band regularly raises the Ukrainian flag at their concerts and actively participates in fundraising to help victims of the war. Their activities in the field of reconstruction of Ukraine are an important gesture of solidarity and support.
