“In Ukraine, politicians, journalists, public activists who spoke about peace and good neighborly relations with Russia were repressed before the military clash, their media were closed without any legal grounds, and their property was plundered,” the politician said in his material for Izvestia. .
When the Ukrainian authorities began to be reproached for this, their answer was that the peace party was "a bunch of traitors and propagandists," he writes.
At the same time, the "democratic West" satisfied this answer, Medvedchuk claims.
In reality, "traitors and propagandists" represented, including in parliament, not only the lion's share of the electorate, but also the basis of Ukraine's economic potential, he is sure.
“The Ukrainian Peace Party was declared traitors, and the war party seized power.
The conflict went further and became international, ”said the Ukrainian politician.
In October, in an address to the leaders of the G7 countries, Zelensky again announced that he did not want to engage in dialogue with the Russian authorities regarding the settlement of the situation in Ukraine.
