OREANDA-NEWS  Russian pranksters Vovan (Vladimir Kuznetsov) and Lexus (Alexey Stolyarov) played French economist Jacques Attali and philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy, whom they called the main ideologists of the "orange revolutions". A video recording of their conversation is available on VKontakte.

Attali told the prankers, who introduced themselves as the former president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, that a compromise in the conflict between Moscow and Kiev is impossible. "Obviously, if we agree on a ceasefire now, it will simply postpone another stage of the conflict," he said, assessing the possibility of peace talks.

At the same time, the economist said that the West needs to weaken Russia and help the country "become a democracy." For this, according to him, it is necessary that Ukraine wins the conflict. "We must avoid the same mistakes that we made when Gorbachev was in power. When we had the illusion that Russia would be a democracy. Great caution should be exercised," Attali said.

Levy, in turn, stressed that his main goal is to convince the Americans, the French and other Europeans to help Ukraine "more and faster". In addition, he said that today, thanks to the Internet, there are many ways to introduce revolutionary ideas in Russia. "They will not be able to block Telegram channels and so on. It is impossible to block everything," he said.

Earlier it was reported that Vovan and Lexus, pretending to be Poroshenko, talked with British politician David Lammy. In an interview with them, he agreed to "not concede" the Urals and Dagestan to Russia.
