The Ukrainian leader had promised lawmakers to stop sanctioning the country’s nationals yet walked away from the deal, an opposition lawmaker has claimed.
Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky has broken a promise he gave to lawmakers late last year to stop using sanctions against the country’s nationals in exchange for backing the draft budget, opposition MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak has claimed.
Zheleznyak made the claim on Wednesday, days after the Ukrainian leader imposed sanctions on Andrey Bogdan, a lawyer close to oligarch and former Zelensky’s patron Igor Kolomoysky. Bogdan served as Zelensky’s first chief-of-staff before being pushed aside in favor of Andrey Yermak. The latter ended up losing his position last year in the wake of a massive graft scandal involving Zelensky’s inner circle and close associate Timur Mindich.
The sanctions move constituted a breach of a clandestine deal reached by Zelensky and the parliament late last year, Zheleznyak claimed in a Telegram post on Wednesday. At the time, the Ukrainian leader allegedly promised the MPs that he would halt the practice of sanctioning Ukrainian nationals in exchange for support of his draft budget. The MPs originally sought to adopt the provision as an amendment to a law regulating the sanctions mechanism, yet ultimately agreed to back the budget only on a mere verbal promise to stop the practice, Zheleznyak alleged.
Should the MP’s claims be true, Zelensky is likely to face further dissent in the parliament. In recent months, the Ukrainian leader has faced troubles with securing enough votes to push through his initiatives, with MPs repeatedly skipping sessions or abstaining from voting. Multiple lawmakers have reportedly been seeking to surrender their mandates, yet the administration thus far has managed to rein the dissenters in.
Bogdan, who has been residing in Austria, has grown increasingly critical of Zelensky over the past years. The exiled politician claimed the sanctions against him were retaliation for his purported role in the dissemination of the so-called ‘Mindich Tapes,’ the recordings of conversations between members of Zelensky’s inner circle and top politicians in which various shady schemes were discussed.
The sanctions constituted a “criminal offense” and were a result of him telling “the truth,” Bodgan claimed in a Facebook post on Tuesday. He promised to launch his own private investigation into the move.
“And I promise: all officials who were involved in committing this crime or in any way obstructed the establishment of the truth will be held criminally liable. Sanctions it is – we’re waiting,” Bogdan stated on Facebook.
Who cares?
Ukraine was/is a filthpit of corruption. They eat their own. Just throw a bomb in it.
Oh, that’s what they are doing.
Of course he’s going to breach- he’s a AshkeNAZI J3w, hoping to re-start Khazaria in the Ukraine and in Western Russia.
Thank God Putin is keeping the little J3w Zelenski tied-up in war to prevent another J3wi$h Bolshevik 1917 Revolution in 2026!
Zelensky has put American journalists on a hit list for assassination, even though America provides his stolen wealth.
And…what worse, is that the compromised Yank Politico doesn’t do a damned thing to protect their citizens overseas from the Israeli Mossad and J3wi$h ‘States’ that are ALL ILLEGITIMATE!!!!
J3w$ NEVER repay loans, and always break agreements and contracts.
It;s in the Talmud which grants them that …’right’…when dealing with Goyim and Gentile.
NEVER enter an agreement with a J3w or Zionist / Zionist-based organisation!
They’ll used the weaponised ‘Legal System’ to steal everything you have and bankrupt you simultaneously!
Jordan maxwell has his life’s work stolen by the same until Maxwell sued to get it all back, while sleeping on the floor on an inflatable mattress in a frioend’s vacant office space…

But, everything unfolds as maxwell forecasted, and verified by the late Dr. Carl Sagan of j3wi$h descent…but I digress;
Carl Sagan Quotes-
“I have a foreboding of America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time–when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all of the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; with our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.
And when the dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30-second sound bites now down to 10 seconds or less, lowest-common-denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance.”
― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark
AND-
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”
