On the account of the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, a post was published on VKontakte, in which, on behalf of the politician, it was reported that Russia “is reuniting.”
Dmitry Medvedev, who has long been a meme man and has lost even signs of influence, since the beginning of the war against Ukraine has been the source of voice for the most fervent and spectacular narratives of Russian propaganda. Therefore, no one was particularly surprised when an entry appeared in his account that “before the inclusion of Georgia, it did not really exist,” and Kazakhstan was an artificial state. The post was later deleted, and its appearance was explained as a hack.
What Medvedev has in his post is Putin’s…
The entry on Medvedev’s account appeared around midnight on Tuesday, August 2. The author argues that soon “there will be no more parades of sovereignty”, and all the people living in the Soviet Union “will be revived together in friendship and mutual understanding.”
“For this, we will spare no strength or means,” the post said. “After the liberation of Kyiv and all the territories of Little Russia from the gangs of nationalists… Russia will again be united, powerful and invincible.”
The author of the text promised that Moscow “ruled by the Slavic people” will continue the next campaign to restore its borders, which “as you know, will not end anywhere.”
Georgia and Kazakhstan are cited as examples. “Until the Russians get there, there is no order,” he concluded.

For Medvedev, the appearance of the publication and its subsequent deletion was explained by account hacking. “The one who hacked the page and published this entry will be dealt with by the administration of the social network and who should,” said Medvedev’s assistant Oleg Osipov.
The press service of VKontakte told Interfax that the embarrassing post was published by a third-party user. “At the moment, the security team is cooperating with the competent services and establishing the causes of the incident,” VK reported.
Medvedev has 2.2 million subscribers on VKontakte and almost 672,000 on Telegram.

Political observers note that after his removal from the post of prime minister, Medvedev has been looking for a suitable place in politics for a long time.
“The invasion of Ukraine changed the chessboard of Russian politics. What he tried to be an alternative – a conservative-reactionary wing nostalgic for the return of the Union – became mainstream. And Medvedev, with his characteristic enthusiasm, decided that be the first in this direction. Well, or at least join – and loudly announce to Putin that he is done with the past, that he is not a liberal, that he is “his”. For five months in his social networks, Medvedev is so sharp, bright and clear that the publication on VKontakte does not surprise anyone. Whether it is a hack or not (and Medvedev has been hacked more than once), it is unlikely that anyone bet it’s definitely not him who wrote it. It’s too similar to the ex-premier and ex-president’s last months posting,” notes the BBC.
After the start of the war in Ukraine, Medvedev began to show activity on social networks that was previously unusual for him, which mainly consisted of aggressive comments on current events. So, in June, he spoke on his Telegram channel about his hatred – however, he did not specify who exactly. “People often ask me why my Telegram posts are so harsh. I answer – I hate them. They are bastards and geeks. They want death for us, Russia. And as long as I’m alive, I will do everything to make them disappear,” the entry said. .
And on May 30, Medvedev wrote that in the event of missile attacks on Russian cities, Russia could strike back at “criminal decision-making centers”, some of which are located “nothing in Kyiv.”
