One day after his release from prison, a known Russian nationalist living in Australia used an anti-vaccination demonstration to proclaim his support for Vladimir Putin.
Russian music was played as Simeon Boikov, who calls himself the Aussie Cossack and is on parole, took the stage in Sydney’s central business district (CBD) Martin Place on Saturday, causing him to smile in appreciation.
In June, Boikov was incarcerated for violating court orders by naming an accused paedophile during an anti-vaxxer demonstration.

Friday, as he was being freed on parole, he stated in a video, “I’m not going to stop, I’m going to double down.”
Boikov, 32, undoubtedly meant his support for Russia, Putin, the invasion of Ukraine, and anti-vaccine sentiments when he said he would “double down” on something.
Boikov, dressed in red and black shorts and a black t-shirt, acknowledged the Putin images being carried during the rally in support of him and Russia.
Then, he launched into a 15-minute rambling diatribe about koalas, Indigenous Australians, Harry Potter, good and bad jail guards, King Charles, and politicians.
This country contains gorgeous vegetation and animals, as well as numerous native species that are protected.
Platypus, koalas,’ Boikov said.
However, there is one species in the United States that is the most protected of them. This species is so protected that we cannot even refer to it by name.
He was referring to the 10-month jail sentence he received for naming a suspected paedophile, of which he served less than three months.
Boikov then revealed that, while incarcerated, “we watched Harry Potter every Sunday night.” There was nothing on television’
Mrs. Cossack, a.k.a. Ekaterina Olshannikova, a.k.a. Katia Boikova, is shown in the crowd at a Sydney anti-vaccine demonstration at Martin Place.

He regained their support by praising his Russian wife Mrs. Cossack’s “grace in the face of tyranny.”
His wife is also known as Ekaterina Olshannikova and Katia Boikova, in addition to Mrs. Cossack.
Boikov stated that he had been kept in the same wing as Hamzy and Alameddine gang members to demonstrate how difficult his little stint in jail was.
“I was transported in a bulletproof land cruiser with my arms and legs tied, wearing an orange jumpsuit similar to those worn at Guantanamo Bay. He stated that it was absolutely absurd.
Simeon Boikov, sometimes known as the Australian Cossack, is shown in handcuffs. Last Friday, he was released from prison.
Boikov then addressed the reason why the tiny audience had initially come.
Because of the (Covid-19) directives, the limits, and the shortcomings of government policy, there were a large number of males incarcerated.
Additionally, he was eager to emphasize that he had developed a social conscience while inside.
I like to acknowledge all the Indigenous brothers in (jail). It is a disgrace that almost 35% of the prison population is Indigenous, while they make up approximately 2% of the population of Australia,’ Boikov said.
Then, he criticized Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for his supposed lack of compassion for Aboriginal people in the past.
Simeon Boikov, also known as the Australian Cossack due to his support for Russia and its invasion of Ukraine, was released from prison on Friday.
Boikov stated that prison is a “revolving door” and that King Charles III should grant pardons now that he is the ruler of Australia.
The announcement of the new king is met with a mixture of applause and jeers.
“We all love Diana, God bless her soul,” he replied, alluding to the first wife of King Charles, who died in a 1997 automobile accident in Paris.
But, if you want to do something right, King Charles, issue a pardon. There are men in there who name protected species, according to Boikov.
“Begin your new government with a pardon for the prisoners.”
‘The true criminals aren’t sitting in prisons, they’re sitting in Parliament,’ he remarked to applause.
These detainees are guilty of committing genocide and murder, as well as leaving a five-kilometer perimeter during lockdown.
On Saturday, there was a throng (photo) of approximately 100 individuals during an anti-vaccination demonstration in Sydney.
The audience responded by chanting “hang them all,” and Boikov encouraged them to speak louder because he was unable to hear them.
An anti-vaccine advocate with a megaphone then addressed Boikov and the crowd.
“Did you know, Aussie Cossak, that an Australian High Court judge ruled the Australian government has no legal basis whatsoever?” he asked.
Without factual support, he said, “And is on record as saying they are all criminals who must all serve justice for the crimes they have committed against the people.”
Boikov responded, “That’s it, and Nuremberg Two is on the horizon,” referring to the prosecution of Nazis following the end of World War II.
Boikov acknowledged former lawmaker Craig Kelly’s presence in the crowd. Liberal-turned-United Australia Party Member of Parliament Mr. Kelly lost his seat in the May federal election.
He then cited Johnny Rotten, formerly of Sex Pistols and also known as John Lydon.
‘John Lydon stated it. Special jails should be constructed for those who are already implementing tyranny, destroying Australian ideals, and removing freedoms, he stated.
John Lydon is not known to have ever spoken on Australian ideals.
Boikov claimed he received over 5,000 letters and postcards of support while incarcerated, which he described as “very humbling and greatly appreciated.”
He then joked to the audience that he would name a prison officer who was unkind to him, but decided against it because the last time he named someone on stage, he was arrested.
He stated, “It’s quite funny, but there are many prison guards who secretly support me in a very subtle, sneaky manner.”
On Australia Day, Ekaterina Olshannikova, whom Simeon Boikov refers to as “Mrs. Cossack,” was photographed on the beach.
However, according to him, the prison administration accused him of radicalizing other detainees.
“Radicalization with what?” Boikov stated, “I’m not a Russian spy or anything.”
He then issued another “shoutout” to his fellow convicts, stating that there were “a lot of good guys” in prison.
Boikov then identified NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard and Transport Minister David Elliot as poor leaders, referring to Mr. Elliot as a “grub.”
“Remember the very first demonstration we had, when we marched and Mr. Elliott called us a group of right-wing extremists, boofheads, and scumbags,” he continued.
‘How could he call these parents and dads and these nice, hard-working family people, these Australians, those disgusting things.’
He did recognize that Craig Kelly, a former political backer, was present.
Mr. Kelly, a former Liberal turned United Australia Party member with severe anti-vaccination views, lost his seat in the May federal election.
