He was also spotted among the extras on Inter in 2012.

Prime Minister Oleksiy Honcharuk took part in a 2012 rally outside the Presidential Administration building on Bankova Street. The footage of the event was published by “5 Channel” on its YouTube channel.

Honcharuk, then 27, took part in a gathering of investors outside the Presidential Administration building on June 5, 2012. The young premier shouted into a megaphone, “Give us back our housing!” and commented to a journalist, pointing to a large-scale housing problem faced by investors.

“The problem today is one of the biggest in Ukraine. 120-300 thousand families, 300 thousand families — think about this figure. That is a large electorate. That is a large number of people. That is an almost regional-level city. That is why the president cannot ignore a problem of this scale, as a state authority,” Honcharuk said.

Also, 27-year-old Oleksiy Honcharuk sat among the extras on the show “Pro Zhyttia” on the Inter TV channel on June 20, 2012. Such extras are recruited for a symbolic fee. He sat in the front row and watched what was happening in the studio, but did not comment.

The future prime minister was in the studio when the show was devoted to the deed of a young man who, dressed as Spider-Man, jumped into the Dnipro from the roof of a metro car.
