Andrey Turchak is secretary of the General Council of the United Russia party and first deputy speaker of the Federation Council. His political success is associated with his father, Anatoly Turchak, who trained judo with the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin and the Rotenberg brothers. He promoted a positive attitude to the recognition of the separatist so-called “People’s Republics” of Donetsk and Luhansk. He called on the Russian authorities to provide the pro-Russian separatist forces in the Donbas region with advanced weapons. He publicly stated that it was impossible to solve the Donbas conflict in a peaceful manner with the Ukrainian authorities. He expressed unfounded claims about a planned Ukrainian military offensive in Donbas. He led negotiations with Denis Pushilin, head of the separatist so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic”. He visited a mobilisation point of the separatist armed forces in the frontline zone of Donbas to personally congratulate the soldiers of the separatist so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic” on Defender of the Fatherland Day. He publicly defended Russia’s decision to recognise the separatist Donbas “republics”. He stated that Russia is indifferent to Western sanctions. He was appointed head of a parliamentary coordination group whose main task is to improve the provision of the Russian army and prepare the necessary legislation. Therefore, he is responsible for actively supporting or implementing actions or policies which undermine or threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, as well as stability and security in Ukraine.

Andrey Turchak est le secrétaire du Conseil général du parti Russie unie et le premier vice-président du Conseil de la Fédération de Russie. Son succès politique est lié à son père, Anatoly Turchak, qui a pratiqué le judo avec le président de la Fédération de Russie Vladimir Poutine et les frères Rotenberg. Il a encouragé une attitude positive concernant la reconnaissance des soi-disant “Républiques populaires” séparatistes de Donetsk et Louhansk. Il a invité les autorités russes à fournir aux forces séparatistes pro-russes de la région du Donbass des armes avancées. Il a déclaré publiquement que la résolution pacifique du conflit de la région du Donbass avec les autorités ukrainiennes était impossible. Il a formulé des affirmations sans fondement concernant une offensive militaire planifiée par l’Ukraine dans le Donbass. Il a mené des négociations avec Denis Pushilin, chef de la soi-disant “République populaire” séparatiste de Donetsk. Il s’est rendu dans un lieu de mobilisation des forces armées séparatistes au niveau de la zone de la ligne de front du Donbass, pour féliciter personnellement les soldats de la soi-disant “République populaire de Donetsk” séparatiste, à l’occasion du jour du défenseur de la patrie. Il a défendu publiquement la décision de la Russie de reconnaître les “Républiques” séparatistes du Donbass. Il a déclaré que la Russie était indifférente aux sanctions occidentales. Il a été nommé chef d’un groupe de coordination parlementaire dont la mission principale est d’améliorer l’approvisionnement de l’armée russe et d’élaborer la législation nécessaire. Il est donc responsable de soutenir activement ou de mettre en œuvre des actions ou des politiques qui compromettent ou menacent l’intégrité territoriale, la souveraineté et l’indépendance de l’Ukraine ainsi que la stabilité et la sécurité en Ukraine.
