David Gilmour says he will “absolutely not” perform with Roger Waters again.

The Pink Floyd guitarist ruled out any chances of sharing the stage with his former bandmate and Pink Floyd co-founder while answering a fan at a Q&A with The Guardian.

He made it clear that he doesn’t prefer the company of people who support leaders like Russian president Vladimir Putin or Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro.

“Absolutely not,” Gilmour replied. “I tend to steer clear of people who actively support genocidal and autocratic dictators like Putin and Maduro. Nothing would make me share a stage with someone who thinks such treatment of women and the LGBT community is OK.”

“On the other hand, I’d love to be back on stage with Rick Wright,” Gilmour added, referring to the late Pink Floyd keyboardist as “one of the gentlest and most musically gifted people I’ve ever known.”

Gilmour’s wife Polly Samson had criticized Waters on social media last year, calling him “anti-Semitic to your rotten core.”

Gilmour endorsed her opinion by re-posting the message on his Twitter handle.

Waters left Pink Floyd in 1985. Gilmour and drummer Nick Mason continued as Pink Floyd, rejoined later by keyboardist and vocalist Richard Wright.

Pink Floyd recently reportedly sold the rights to the band’s recorded music to Sony Music in a $400 million deal.
