A man wearing only his underpants emerges from a pit surrounded by Russian flags, holding a banner with a picture of Vladimir Putin in his hand. According to the 7info.ru portal, the banner belongs to a separate sabotage brigade “Veterans”. The strange spectacle was accompanied by cries of victory.

Herashchenko categorically mocked the appearance of the Russian. As he noted, Russia, one of the world leaders in terms of economic potential, as a country could achieve great success, and instead bring people like Baranov, for whom the war was an opportunity to create “cribs” and collect likes on the Internet .

It turned out that even the Russians were not happy with the behavior of the Smolensk councilor. As reported by the 7info portal, residents of Smolensk were outraged by Baranów’s video. There were many critical comments under the man’s video, which was shared on social networks.

Residents of Smolensk ask why politicians with such a “militant” mood are not now at the forefront. According to them, he did it for PR – we read on Russian portals.

Baranov is said to be known for his various eccentric actions, which have not won the sympathy of the people. In the comments, netizens reminded him, among other things, of an accident while driving a Western brand car, and also wearing a “scarlet suit”.
