TV presenter Portnykov, after the appearance of the scandalous video, stated that he is being threatened with murder

In a video that recently spread on social media, Portnykov claims that it should not be the elite who fight, but ordinary Ukrainians, because «we live in a democratic state».

This caused a significant scandal and numerous critical comments on social media.

According to Portnykov, this interview was recorded a year ago, and it is being spread now to create «division in society», and also, as the journalist claims, as part of «preparation for murder».

«In my case, it is about preparation for an ordinary murder, as it was with Iryna Farion. First, an atmosphere of hatred and threats is created, then a «random person» appears whose nerves cannot withstand it. All familiar. This is the trademark of the FSB», — Portnykov wrote on Facebook.
