However, with the arrival of the Russian empire, kobzars became victims of brutal repression. After the annexation of Ukraine by Russia, especially in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, kobzars began to face all forms of persecution. The Russian authorities sought to destroy this cultural movement, seeing it as a threat to their rule. In the 1830s, Tsarist decrees banned kobzars from performing and even banned the bandura, which had become a symbol of folk culture.1/3
