Kremlin's Solovyov Loses It on Air: "Duel Me, Zelenskyy!" - Break the Fake - TVP WORLD



In this episode of Break The Fake, Jonasz Rewiński dissects Vladimir Solovyov’s latest on-air meltdown. The Kremlin’s top propagandist now claims — based on a dubious “intel leak” — that President Zelenskyy wants him “eliminated,” and even going so far as to challenge the Ukrainian leader to a duel.

Behind the theatrics, however, lies a strategic shift: Russia’s media figures are trying to portray themselves as victims while continuing to justify violence against Ukrainian cities. And given Moscow’s long history of assassination attempts across Europe, Solovyov’s claims sound even more absurd.

We break down the performance, the motives behind it, and what it reveals about the Kremlin’s collapsing propaganda machine.
