Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev, commenting on the death of the war correspondent, was cited as saying that, in his opinion, Russian citizens should report to the special services about cases of Ukrainian funding in Russia. He added:
"It's time to realize the obvious.. That if someone says in front of you that they receive money or work from Ukrainian sources, then there is a high probability this someone has embarked on the path of betrayal… And has already committed a criminal offense."
State Duma deputy Dmitry Kuznetsov has appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin with a request to consider the possibility of presenting Vladlen Tatarsky (Maxim Fomin) for a state award, posthumously.
Tatarsky, 40, was a well-known former military commander and a war correspondent. Born in Makeevka, Donetsk region, Tatarsky's real name was Maxim Fomin a pseudonym he took from a novel by popular Russian author Viktor Pelevin.
