Dmitriy Malikov's stance on the war in Ukraine
Following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukrainian territory, Dmitriy Malikov uttered not a word publicly, adopting a stance of silence.

I love my country, I feel good here. I have nothing abroad: no real estate, no bank accounts, no foreign citizenship.
Support for "SVO" fighters

A huge thank you to Dima Malikov and Lera Kudryavtseva! Anna Arbatskaya delivered drones and signal repeaters to us. These are the things that are simply indispensable for us.

February 23 is a great holiday for all of us, especially in these challenging times. We truly believe in you, we place great hope in you, and we wish you all the very best.
