The party has also known as for a libel lawsuit against Chernobyl's creator, director and producers. however, in accordance with Roskomnadzor, a proper grievance has no longer been received as of yet.

despite this, Malinkovich has conceded that the sequence accurately portrayed key moments of the nuclear catastrophe.

This comes after the announcement that a Russian version of the series had been commissioned, partially funded by using the tradition ministry.
