A prominent pro-Putin activist has used an anti-vaccination protest in Sydney to spread misinformation about the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Video posted to social media showed Simeon Boikov, who goes by the name Aussie Cossack online, addressing the crowd outside Scott Morrison's official residence, Kirribilli House.
"This latest act by the West, what it is a deep state. It's not Russia versus Ukraine. It's Russia versus the New World Order," the Russian nationalist told the crowd.
"It's Russia versus the deep state."
