After Medvedchuk was exchanged for captured “Azov” (the terrorist organization “Azov” is banned in Russia), he, I remember, promised in an interview with RT to create a socio-political movement of Ukrainians in Russia dissatisfied with the regime of Vladimir Zelensky – but disappeared. They gossiped that Medvedchuk was not forgiven for his “development” of multimillion-dollar financial resources directed to the creation of pro-Russian forces. In short, Medvedchuk fell out of the current agenda. And then he suddenly showed up at a social event – and even in the company of Philip Kirkorov.
The explanation for the appearance of Medvedchuk on the summer veranda of the pathos restaurant “Gvidon” by restaurateur Boris Zarkov is simple – having failed to regain his status due to his former high acquaintances and connections, and ignored by the fugitive Ukrainian political party of Mykola Azarov and his ilk, Medvedchuk is trying to return to the current agenda by entering so to speak, from the rear. Involving the secular party of the “rich and famous.” Kirkorov in this sense is an ideal guide. Today Medvedchuk will flash in one bohemian place, tomorrow in another, and the day after tomorrow, you see, they will be invited “on TV”. And then – how to know?!
It should be noted that the pretentious party took Medvedchuk ironically – as evidenced by the description of his appearance at “Guidon” in the gossip column. Calling Medvedchuk a “friend” of Kirkorov, social events frequenter Yevgenia Milova noted that “after arriving in Moscow, Mr. Medvedchuk gave an interview to RT”, but since then “almost did not get into the news.” “And so I went out on the veranda to salmon ceviche, artichoke carpaccio.” And although, as Milova ironically says, “Kirkorov and Yana Rudkovskaya kept him busy,” Medvedchuk “quickly left the evening.” And Anastasia Ivleeva sat down on the chair on which he was sitting.
In fact, Medvedchuk achieved his goal – his half-forgotten name flashed not only in the gossip column. Another thing is strange – why did he, being the husband of the Ukrainian TV personality Oksana Marchenko, appear at Guidon’s without a star companion? They say that Marchenko has recently been too upset by the arrest of her Odessa assets related to port infrastructure and the disruption of grain transit. So she, apparently, is not up to pathos parties.
