I face a prison sentence ranging from 15 years to life for a single interview. That’s Zelenskyу’s idea of democracy.
The prosecutor assigned to my case is the same one prosecuting Ihor Kolomoisky. I never imagined I would have so much in common with Ihor Valeriyovych.
I learned about the charges against me through the media. The statement issued by the Prosecutor General’s Office and the SBU reeks of 1937.
Let me be clear: I am not accused of treason because of any ties to Russia — I have none. Nor am I accused of spreading Russian propaganda. I am accused because of words that Russia could potentially use. Just as Russia uses Zelensky’s words and those of every one of his cronies every single day.
I am being prosecuted for saying that democracy and freedom of speech do not exist in Ukraine, that “the country is full of bans.” But isn't this very case proof that I was right?
They now want to put me on an international wanted list. Imagine giving Interpol a good laugh.
But there is nothing funny about this for Ukrainians.
And this fight against the charges is about much more than simply preventing myself from becoming another inmate in a Ukrainian prison. It is about proving that Zelenskуy’s Ukraine has turned into a dictatorship, that it persecutes dissent and uses cruelty as a form of punishment.
This fight is also about standing up for the biblical words: “so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.” And: “If God is for us, who can be against us?”
Zelenskyy, in Ireland, again insisted that military-age men who have left Ukraine must return, framing it as a matter of basic fairness while some fight and others do not.
The Irish prime minister politely but firmly signalled that his country would not force them back or trample on their human rights to do so.
Meanwhile, men are still being rounded up at home, often with bribes involved, and sent to a front where the Defence Ministry continues to be engulfed in corruption scandals. Instead of ending the war or addressing manpower shortages and corruption, Zelenskyy simply wants more bodies to turn into cannon fodder.
My interview with @SWagenknecht and @FabioDeMasi.
Watch in German or with subtitiles. A very interesting conversation about Ukraine's future. Also, a bit about Zelenskyy's political persecution of critics.
"Political repressions under Zelensky have become a norm rather than some kind of a unique thing. First, Zelensky learned about my future speech in the European Parliament six days, I think, before the speech needed to take place. And within three days he sanctioned me.
And Ukrainian media revealed that he was the one to do it manually. He controlled everything, he insisted that the paper goes, he signed those sanctions, so he was absolutely angry with me. And we know that Roberta Metsola, who is the President of the European Parliament, is in very close relations with Zelensky and supports his agenda.
And there was no actual legal basis or explanation that would be provided to me why I was barred from entering the European Parliament. The sanctions of Ukraine, they actually do not expand to the European Union territory, any other country territory. So, I gave the speech online, thanks to AfD.
They organized it, they made it work, though the European Parliament even banned the translation of the speech. So, I could not use even the instruments of translation. And my visitor badge was taken away.
So, it was quite a big deal. And it showed that Zelensky is absolutely afraid of the world. If you check my speech online, there was absolutely nothing from Russian propaganda.
And I am insisting that Russia is guilty in invading my country. Russia commits war crimes and crimes against humanity. And there is no justification for this war.
However, it does not also make all the policies of Zelensky sacred. And Zelensky turned Ukraine, once the biggest democracy near Russia's border, into autocracy. And we need to recognize this and we need to voice this out for the people of Ukraine.
But now I am facing even worse charges. So, the very same day we signed finally the documents with the lawyers who would represent us standing against the sanctions, Zelensky insisted that his law enforcement introduce a suspicion in treason charges, which is much, much worse. Because sanctions buried my financial operations in Ukraine.
And, you know, they also wanted to ban my social media. It's in the sanctions package. But the treason charges is much worse.
Because under martial law, I could face in Ukraine from 15 years in prison to life sentence. And this is absolutely insane. And actually, the General Prosecution Office and Security Service Office, they are under manual control of Zelensky.
So, what happened? I was up to having a speech in Berlin, in the Bundestag, again, about the necessity for peace, about the vision of peace, many things that you're also saying. We have, you know, the same vision of this in many ways.
And Zelensky also was visiting Bundestag just in a day. He learned obviously about that. And immediately I got those media coverage that I've got a suspicion of treason.
And the suspicion is based on my interview with Tucker Carlson. So, an American interview based on American soil with an American journalist.
And the General Prosecution even made already mistakes in procedural, technical things. Because they revealed already the wording, which I'm accused of. And one of the words is that I'm saying that my nation is dying.
So, this is already the reason for Zelensky to introduce treason charges and to put me in jail for 15 years or a life sentence. So, repressions are huge. Bloggers are facing also sanctions, charges, repressions.
People are afraid for their physical security. There are a lot of people who are in exile, who are in political exile, who are in jail for what they wrote or said. Yeah, I'm already on the list.
And this is terrifying, but I think it's also very important to keep going. Because if we stop, then there will be no one to stand for Ukraine, to be frank. And I think it's super important that the voices here in Germany, the audience here in Germany understands that there are a lot of Ukrainians, I believe there is a majority of Ukrainians who want peace and who want these messages out.
Because this is a call for help, a call to preserve our country."

For years, Europe was told that forced street abductions, human rights abuses by military recruitment officers, and the machinery of coercive mobilization in Ukraine were nothing but Russian propaganda. Now the line is that it is all acceptable and necessary.
Yet in Chernivtsi, military recruitment officers have already been formally notified of suspicions over the abduction of a man in broad daylight. A combat veteran who had fought since the first days of the full-scale war and had a legal deferment was snatched off the street, threatened at gunpoint and moved between facilities.
Ukraine’s Ombudsman @lubinetzs filed an appeal with the Prosecutor General’s Office. Investigators are also examining allegations of beatings, demands for bribes and the use of tear gas.
Military recruitment officers have no right to operate like criminal gangs.
@IuliiaMendel Because Zelenskyy is a dictator. Who also created slavery for Ukrainian civilian men. And EU pays him money for turning us ito slaves. As EU can't do this with their people. For now
Europe chose my former boss Volodymyr Zelenskyy its face of democracy. Low-educated, rude, blackmailing, self-obsessed personality that filled Ukraine with violence, human rights violation, and political persecutions.
Six years ago, I was teaching this person what media is and what and in what way to tell them. Today, I am politically persecuted by Zelenskyy.
When I was up to have a speech in the European Parliament, Zelenskyy introduced sanctions for ten years against me. And the European Parliament without explanation took my badge away and banned my entrance. The day before my speech in German Bundestag just this month, Zelenskyy pressed his law enforcement to start treason charges against me.
If I lose the court, I will face from 15 years in prison to life sentence. Apparently, this is the punishment for one my interview. From 15 years in prison to life sentence for one interview – this is democracy of Zelenskyy, a face of Europe’s democracy we are told…
BREAKING: Rolls-Royce, luxury penthouse and a pool with a live crocodile - instead of protecting power plants.
Billions stolen for Zelensky exposed.
Audit Ukraine!
@Panchenko_X EU pays Zelenskyy to turn Ukrainian civilian men into slaves. Average military costs 400 EUR per month, very cheap for EU. Disgusting modern slavery
Man who receives Western money to protect Kyiv’s energy infrastructure - Vlad Sokolov.
This is not a joke.
As a result, Kyiv is left without electricity and without protection.
M'while, he has a penthouse in central Kyiv, a pool with a crocodile, and a Rolls-Royce. He has only two employees who help move the money offshore.
Later Zelensky and his circle will say they did everything they could, lock up a grandmother asking for peace, and demand the war continue along with more money.
No Russian propaganda could invent something like this. Ukrainian reality is far worse than any horror anyone could make up.
REMINDER: Zelensky is kidnapping thousands of men: our fathers, brothers and kids.
And then he sells them back to the families for $15,000.
Thousands daily.
Zelenskys former closest aid has revealed the truth about him
But the EU has banned her from appearing to tell the world who the corrupt crime boss Zelensky really is.
I wonder why?
@RealAlexJones Zelenskyy created dictatorship and slavery in my country. And EU pays for this. This happens last 4 years. Mass media was just hiding this - both Ukrainian and EU. Brave new world with modern slavery
