The two men have long been famous in Russia for making fun of high-profile people, including politicians and celebrities. They have recently organized several prank calls touching upon relations with Ukraine. Posing as the son of Ukraine’s ousted president, Viktor Yanukovich junior, Vovan has asked Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko for an asylum for his father. He had also spoken to a US military commander Kevin McNeely pretending to be Ukrainian interior minister Arsen Avakov, making the high-ranking general promise to help equip Kiev‘s National Guard.
