Belfast man Gary Moore has announced that he would never visit Israel, describing it as a criminal state during a press conference in Moscow.
The PIC [Russian language] quoted Moore, who recently arrived in Russia to perform at a number of concerts, as saying that he had visited a lot of countries, offering the opinion that music is without boundaries but adding that he would not visit Israel.
He told the press conference that his refusal to visit Israel was because of its racist policies against the Palestinian people, adding that he could not accept Israel's policy and lies about Palestine and its people.
The renowned guitarist, whose blues/rock career stretches back to the late Sixties, said that Israel was exerting big efforts to display itself as a victim of war, while it is "absolutely not".
