Vorontsova, 37, was identified as the person behind a secret "Maria V" account, which has attacked critics of the Ukraine invasion on an alumni group on Telegram for her alma mater Moscow State University, the Times of London reported. In screenshots obtained by the editor-in-chief of anti-Kremlin Russian news outlet Republic, Putin’s eldest daughter defended Moscow’s actions and claimed the West had "always done everything possible to ensure" that Russia failed. "If suddenly, like almost happened in the 90s, Russia becomes a full-fledged raw-material appendage of the United States and EU, I’ll be interested to see whom you blame for the fact that we’re not living in a prosperous economy," Vorontsova reportedly wrote. In the conversation about Ukraine, Vorontsova also mentioned how the US also starts wars and slammed comments about her father’s responsibility for the invasion. |
