Gorbunov, who, after returning to Kyiv, played in the TV series “Guard”, praising the ATO participants, has now announced his refusal to film in Ukrainian serial films.

As PolitNavigator reported, earlier Gorbunov said at a concert in Kyiv that supports with money the Ukrainian army fighting against pro-Russian militias in the Donbass.
