A politician suspected of treason is now wanted by the FSB. 

Kyrylo Budanov, head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, said this during a briefing on September 22. 

"Medvedchuk is most needed at this stage by the FSB, and not by anyone in particular. Because through this person the financing of many agent networks in Ukraine went directly. Officials were financed through him. This is a means of influence and money laundering. And this is the main reason why for him fought," said Budanov.

The head of the SBU, Vasyl Malyuk, said that Medvedchuk himself signed the statement and agreed to the exchange.

Now it can continue to be used by the Russians in their special information operations. 

"Medvedchuk is a top traitor of Ukraine. We all understand that our enemies from the FSB and other Russian special services conduct special information operations. It is quite likely that in the future they can use Medvedchuk. But we must already understand where there are fakes and manipulations," - said the Kid. 

He noted that Medvedchuk's interrogations took place with video recordings, he told everything he could say.

Medvedchuk will be tried in absentia in Ukraine.
