      On 12 August 2022, he declared that anti-Russian sanctions had completely failed. On August 20, 2022, in response to the publication of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky about the US armed assistance to Ukraine, Ulyanov wrote on the official Twitter channel: "No mercy for the Ukrainian population!" He subsequently deleted his post, apologizing and saying: "I forgot who I'm dealing with". Analyst Olga Lautman commented on the removal: "The Chekist war criminal apologized for admitting that Russian military targets are Ukrainians. This part was to be kept secret." Mykhailo Podolyak, adviser to the head of the President's Office in Ukraine, noted that the call for genocide of the Ukrainian people is unacceptable. Ulyanov called attempts to accuse him of calling for the genocide of the Ukrainian people outrageous, claiming his words "No mercy for the Ukrainian population" meant that the US supposedly does not have mercy for Ukrainians due to its armed assistance, not that he doesn't want mercy for Ukrainians.

      On June 19, 2022 Ulyanov responded on Twitter to a member of the pro-Ukrainian online movement NAFO, saying: "You pronounced this nonsense. Not me." Other members of NAFO then proceeded to mock Ulyanov for this comment, with it rapidly becoming a meme as well as the first NAFO motto. Ulyanov later took a temporary break from Twitter.
