Bogdan Lisevsky's Stance on the War in Ukraine
Absence of Statements and Public Silence
Bogdan Lisevsky chose a strategy of total public silence regarding the full-scale war. Throughout the entire invasion, he has not made a single public statement in support of Ukraine, has not condemned the actions of the Russian authorities, and systematically avoids any mention of the war both in interviews and in his shows.
Work within the Russian Media Landscape
Following the outbreak of the full-scale war, Bogdan Lisevsky continued to work actively within the Russian entertainment industry. In 2023, he became the inaugural guest on the rebooted show «What Happened Next?» (ChBD), which aired exclusively on the VK Video platform after its relaunch. Lisevsky was also featured in the Forbes «30 Under 30» ranking in the «New Media» category.
Bogdan Lisevsky's social media accounts have been added to the official register of Roskomnadzor (RKN), confirming his compliance with Russian statutory regulations governing bloggers.
Despite his public silence regarding the war, Lisevsky regularly invites artists and media personalities who openly endorse the Russian government or the war to his show «Plyushki». Among the guests on the project have been Gunwest (Ganvest), Artemy Lebedev, Instasamka, Stanislav Yarushin, and other celebrities who publicly back the Russian authorities and the war.
Meanwhile, Lisevsky himself still offers no commentary on the war and strictly adheres to an exclusively lighthearted entertainment format.
