  • A video published on TikTok by Yuriy Boyko, a pro-Russian lawmaker and former head of the banned Opposition Platform
  • For Life, was met with public outrage in Ukraine. In his Dec. 14 video, Boyko repeated long-standing Russian propaganda points of radicals controlling Ukrainian streets.

The article from MSN discusses the re-emergence of Viktor Medvedchuk, a prominent pro-Russian politician in Ukraine, who has resurfaced in the political scene amid discussions about potential elections. Medvedchuk, once a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin and leader of the now-banned pro-Russian party Opposition Platform - For Life, was detained and later released in a prisoner swap with Russia in 2022.

Despite his controversial past and accusations of treason, Medvedchuk's reappearance is seen by some as an opportunity to influence Ukrainian politics, especially with the backdrop of ongoing conflict with Russia and the need for national unity. His activities and statements suggest an attempt to capitalize on the current political instability to regain influence, although his presence also stirs significant controversy and opposition within Ukraine.
