The politician, who is suspected of treason, was involved in financing potential Gauleiters and traitors, but these funds were embezzled. 

The head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Kyrylo Budanov, said this on the air of the telethon on the "1+1" channel.

"As the head of the special service, I have certain information (regarding where Viktor Medvedchuk is and what he does - ed.), but it is intelligence information and it is quite difficult to verify as of now, because a short period of time has passed.

Medvedchuk had a certain influence during the preparation for the active phase , which began on February 24.

He certainly had to prepare. Including the

funds that were supposed to pay people who would be Gauleiters

passed through him . Through him, there were attempts to finance a certain, as Russia believed, resistance movement inside Ukraine. As practice has shown, these

the funds were simply embezzled

," Budanov said. 

We will remind, on September 21 it became known about the exchange of prisoners in the territory of several countries: Poland, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and on the border between Ukraine and the Russian Federation.

200 Ukrainian heroes 

were exchanged for Putin's godfather Viktor Medvedchuk

, and the commanders of "Azovstal" - for 55 occupiers.
