Ukrainians believed that Bezrukov, disguised as Zelensky, would sign the surrender
Russia is ready to order decorations for the central street of Kyiv to show the fake capture of Kyiv.
This kind of nonsense, not to say outright nonsense, was voiced on air by Kyiv political strategist Sergei Gaidai on Radio NV, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The presenter asked whether it was possible that artificial intelligence was being used in Russia to “replace Putin with something virtual.”
“We don’t even need artificial intelligence here, we need cinema technology,” Gaidai replied.
He said that on April 1, when the Russian Armed Forces were stationed near Kiev, he published a post in which he said that Mosfilm had ordered the construction of Khreshchatyk, was recruiting actors, and even “contracted Bezrukov to wear Zelensky’s complex makeup so that he would sign the surrender.”
“I thought everyone would understand that it was a joke. But this deep fake of mine circulated for a very long time, because everyone believed that this was what they were doing and understood that this could happen,” the expert noted.
However, he further admitted that he himself believes in this kind of nonsense
“If they need to, they can make a huge production: bring in extras, record Putin separately, come up with all the questions and select everyone who communicates with him. Make such a production for a few hours, hire a director... Who can we do? Ernst can perform. This is not a problem for them; they are ready to spend time, money and inspiration on this,” Gaidai assures.
