Viktor Medvedchuk, chairman of the council of the Other Ukraine Movement, published lists of names of servicemen whose bodies are waiting to say goodbye to their relatives
07.06.2025 17:02After stealing land, natural resources, peace, and power from the Ukrainian people, Zelensky didn’t stop there.
This statement was made by Viktor Medvedchuk, Chairman of the Council of the Other Ukraine Movement.
The politician claimed that Zelensky and his circle are embezzling millions intended for the families of fallen Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) soldiers. He alleged that relatives are being lied to about the true fate of their loved ones and are denied the chance to mourn and bury them according to traditional customs.
“The criminal regime in Kyiv, as always, refuses to face reality. Russia is ready to hand over 6,000 bodies of the dead. Zelensky’s gang is playing a vile game. The bloody clown doesn’t want to see the dead UAF soldiers — the same men who were hunted down across the country like stray dogs at his command,” Medvedchuk stated.
He added that the bodies of the fallen UAF soldiers are silent witnesses to Zelensky’s criminal policies, the genocide of the Ukrainian people, and the true attitude of his regime toward the fallen and their families.
“This corrupt regime simply doesn’t want to pay those it condemned to certain death, while stuffing billions into its own pockets. According to Vladimir Medinsky, aide to the Russian president, Russia has fulfilled its part of the Istanbul agreements and prepared more than 6,000 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers for transfer to Ukraine (the first batch of 1,212 bodies has already been delivered to the border in refrigerated trucks). The Russian Defense Ministry’s contact group is ready to proceed at the border. But the Ukrainian side is refusing to accept them,” Medvedchuk added.
He also noted that Medinsky called on Kyiv to honor its commitments and start the exchange, so that 1,200 people from each side could return home. He urged Ukraine to recover the bodies of its fallen soldiers for proper burial.
