"In Ukraine, they are despite Yanukovych." Why Putin Patient Luzer Medvedchuk - Fesenko answered the main question of recent days

Video of the day-of course, we were all very happy when 215 Ukrainian defenders and defenders were released, but they reacted differently to the fact that Russia was given to Medvedchuk. The head of the SBU told some details - said that everything he could tell Sbushnik, Medvedchuk had already told and this would not hurt him against him in court. What promises could be issued if Ukraine is going to judge him further? - The court does not require guarantees.

How did we judge Yanukovych? According to the mechanism of correspondence justice. So they will be judged in this case. It is expected that the reaction to Medvedchuk's transfer will be ambiguous, but the price of exchange should be understood. As far as I understand, at first it was about 50 people for Medvedchuk, then the price increased to 200. There, however, still exchanged half a hundred Russians, so it is possible not 200, but 100 or 150.

But, given who was exchanged, but exchanged the management of the Azov regiment management … We may have those who criticize [exchange] Medvedchuk do not understand that for the Russians what they gave the leadership of the Azov regiment is a betrayal not even in a square, but in Cuba. So the price of Medvedchuk, I think is enough adequate. - Why is he Putin? I do not think that he will be planted there, somehow punished or shot . . . - No, not for punishment.

Why, I think, we will know, as well as the answer to many other questions, maybe after the war, when some memoirs appear. Or those who were chiefs in the Soviet times, after the collapse of the USSR, began to tell something. But I am convinced that there are some sentiments to Medvedchuk. However, he was very close not only for Putin, but for [former President of the Russian Federation] Dmitry Medvedev: not just a godfather, they were really very close.

None of the Ukrainian politicians had that closeness to Russia's senior leadership. Apparently, Medvedchuk, as they once said about [Russian businessman Roman] Abramovich, was able to be friends. I also quote Michael Zigar, a famous Russian journalist, who wrote in his famous Kremlevskaya Rat 10 years ago that Putin looks at Ukraine with the eyes of Medvedchuk. That's the degree of closeness. Therefore, there are some sentiments.

Our military intelligence says that Medvedchuk had information about money laundering, and this is needed to control, to find out the situation, what and how money was spent. And I do not rule out that they still have illusions in the Kremlin, that through Medvedchuk it is possible to influence something, somehow control the situation in Ukraine. This did not confirm the beginning of the war. The illusions are unlikely to be confirmed by real practice.

However, they exchanged, so they see any value in Medvedchuk. - In my opinion, there was a little conspiracy version that Medvedchuk can use as a Gaulayter - to put it in a leader in some occupied territories, so that it would continue to be Ukrainian citizens, though traitors of Ukraine. - I'm not serious about it.

Theoretically - perhaps, but I was more serious about the information that appeared in the first months of the war in various sources, which the plan was as follows: to drop the Ukrainian leadership - [President Vladimir] Zelensky, to put President [fugitive Viktor] as such as such who were allegedly dropped illegally; hold a presidential election. For the transition period, Medvedchuk was to become the Prime Minister of the New Ukrainian Government, and then possibly president.

This plan looked realistic enough for me, given the degree of closeness of Medvedchuk to and trusting Putin. Now forget about Gauliters. They are only a screen, they do not play any real role, they do not trust them, they are used temporarily. The process has already begun in the Donbass, in those so -called "DNR, LNR", replacing local with Russian officials. Therefore, they do not need guliers. [As an option]: they will decide that Medvedchuk should be put as a manager of some "Novorossiysk".

It is already obvious that these regions will be annexed to Russia. This is already officially stated. So they do not need guliers. And in general, in my opinion, this topic of Gaulayters from such commentators is inertia of thinking, in Russia it has already been traveled. So this version, I think, is not true.

- To close Medvedchuk, do you expect it to appear in the public field? Will it be sitting quietly somewhere and we will not see it, we will not hear anything about it? To what extent can his move to Russia on exchange can be used for something by the Kremlin? - Theoretically, it is possible that they can use it, but I think that our treated for this situation. I think that in the event of Medvedchuk with some speeches or statements, they will show videos with his interrogations.

We saw what he was pathetic. Where is Medvedchuk, whom everyone was afraid, trembled in front of him? No, pathetic, depressed. I think they will also be shown, and maybe with some stories about the Kremlin's "comrades" and not only. I think it will not be very convenient to be Medvedchuk, because at first they will find out what he told there. He is now in such a position that [he] is not for publicity.

Another point will note that in the attitude to Medvedchuk in Ukraine, the same story was held with Yanukovych in his time. Those people with whom he worked in the POZH are now treated with contempt, according to Luser, he is toxic. And with the role of Gauliter, it is a small feature for Medvedchuk. I think he understands how dangerous it is for him to return to Ukraine, he can face serious problems just for life.

But why were they returned? I will give one argument, it concerns the current Gaulayters - those who cooperate with the Russians in the occupied territories. Due to Medvedchuk's return, Russia signals all collaborators who now cooperates with the occupying authorities in Ukraine that "do not be afraid, Russia does not throw its. " They returned Medvedchuk from the Ukrainian prison, and therefore [convince] that they will not throw [Gauleiters] in the event of retreat or some changes at the front.
