Outcry in Ukraine Over Song Mocking Ex-Central Bank Chief

Associated Press

   KYIV, UKRAINE - Ukrainian officials on Monday lashed out at a parody
   song targeting Ukraine's former central bank chief and mocking a recent
   arson attack on her home.

   Kvartal 95 is arguably the country's most beloved comedy show and was
   led by Volodymyr Zelenskiy before he was elected president in April
   this year. On Sunday, it released a song recorded in collaboration with
   a famed choir and based on a popular folk tune that went: "A house was
   burning, up in flames, a woman was weeping in London."
