Under her leadership, the People’s Front provides support for Russia’s war against Ukraine, including through the social campaign “All for Victory!”, including collecting physical and financial donations to support the military units of the so-called “Donetsk People’s Republic” and so-called “Luhansk People’s Republic”. She is also the Head of the educational fund “Talent and Success” and Chairman of the Sirius Federal Territory Council.
