A journalist from the Ukrainian news outlet TSN briefly spoke with Luisa (Liza) Rozova — the woman widely alleged to be the daughter of Russian President Vladimir Putin — at the L Gallery in Paris’ 20th arrondissement, where she reportedly works, according to LRT.lt news.
Rozova is said to be the daughter of Putin and Svetlana Krivonogikh, one of Russia’s wealthiest women. Multiple media reports state Elizaveta Krivonogikh was born in 2003 in St. Petersburg and later changed her name to Luiza Rozova at 14. Investigative outlets consider her mother a likely former mistress of Putin, who became wealthy soon after Liza’s birth.
At a gallery opening, TSN approaches Rozova
On Dec. 3, the gallery opened its newest exhibition, which Rozova attended. Around 11 p.m., she stepped outside with several staff members.
According to TSN, when journalist Dmitry Svyatnenko approached, «her entourage seemed startled; the men simply froze.» He greeted Rozova, explained he was from Ukraine, and said he had a few questions.
As the conversation began — while both continued walking — Rozova immediately said she had not given permission to be filmed.
«Well, you know, Kyiv is without power right now. And right now, an air raid siren is sounding. We didn’t give permission for that either,» the journalist responded.
The exchange
The following dialogue then occurred, with questions from the journalist and brief replies from Rozova:
Q: «You support him?»
A: «What does that have to do with me?»
Q: «Well, he’s your father. The least you could do is call him now and say, ‘Dad, stop shelling Kyiv.’»
A: «Yeah, right,» she replied, dismissively.
Q: «Well, try it.»
A: «Yeah, right.»
The journalist continued:
«You can come to Kyiv and act as an air defense — better than any Patriot system. Or go to Pokrovsk now and put an end to this whole thing.»
Rozova replied, «Can you imagine how I’d go now?»
The journalist offered to buy her a plane ticket to Kyiv but noted that, because of the war, no flights are operating to Ukraine.
«Unfortunately, I can’t help. I’m very sorry,» Rozova said.
Luiza Vladimirovna
Notably, Rozova has not confirmed claims about her parentage. Her birth certificate reportedly does not list a father, though her patronymic is «Vladimirovna.»
According to TSN, Rozova was admitted to ICART, a private arts and cultural management school in Paris, in 2020. In recent years, she has avoided showing her full face on social media, posting only partially obscured images.
