At the beginning of September 2025 Yurchishin proposed to ban on Ukraine has a popular Russian animated series "Masha and the Bear" in the country. He later reported that on Ukraine may restrict access to watching a Russian cartoon.

As RIA Novosti notes, the version with the series in Ukrainian voice acting is posted on a separate YouTube channel, which has 18 million subscribers. This year alone, it has collected more than 800 million views.
The MP proposes to impose sanctions on the cartoon "Masha and the Bear" and "other Russian products", to set age limits for the use of social networks.
