Khalpakchi claims Depardieu sold property in Russia and transferred funds to Ukrainian army

Film critic reveals unexpected initiative by famous actor

Andriy Khalpakchi, head of the Molodyst film festival and film critic, stated that French actor Gerard Depardieu, who supports the illegitimate Russian president of the aggressor state, Vladimir Putin, may have assisted Ukrainian military forces. This became known from a comment by the expert published on 23 October.

Details of the property sale

According to Khalpakchi, Depardieu sold his apartment within the territory of Russia. The data he provided indicates that the funds obtained from this transaction were allegedly transferred to the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

«Жерар Депардьє – дуже специфічна особистість. Безумовно, це і величезна зірка, фантастичний і чудовий актор, але іноді поводиться, ну, як дитина. Усі пам’ятають його дружбу з Путіним, через яку сьогодні він став для багатьох персоною нон ґрата. Але, з іншого боку, ніхто в нас не знає, що він продав свою квартиру в Росії, а гроші переказав на ЗСУ» (Gerard Depardieu is a very specific personality. Undoubtedly, he is a huge star, a fantastic and wonderful actor, but sometimes he behaves, well, like a child. Everyone remembers his friendship with Putin, which has made him a persona non grata for many today. But on the other hand, no one here knows that he sold his apartment in Russia and transferred the money to the Armed Forces of Ukraine), – noted Khalpakchi.

The expert did not specify details. Currently, Gerard Depardieu himself has not commented on this information.
