The Verkhovna Rada should make the procedure for convicting collaborators easier. Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleksiy Danilov addressed the deputies with such a request on the air of the telethon.

“I would like the procedure to be simplified, as during the war. But our legislator is quite democratic, we need to carry out a democratic procedure that this person is a collaborator. I would like to appeal to the people's deputies, they are going to - maybe they will change their mind and will do it according to a simplified procedure, ”said Danilov.

He warned that it would be better for Russian supporters and associates of the arrested Viktor Medvedchuk to surrender to the SBU, rather than wait until they are found..

“If we think that everything is over with Medvedchuk, then, unfortunately, there are still people like Medvedchuk in our country. And these people brought here the so-called " There were many of these people, it systematically worked on the territory of our country. Moreover, they set up their conditional Russian camp here and have been working openly since almost 2014.. This is a totally unacceptable thing.. Today, the investigation will find out how these things were financed,” said the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council.

Danilov clarified that, in particular, we are talking about those who earned on the transit of energy resources, and then “converted” the earned money into Russian propaganda.

“I can say today that the well-known pipe, which was taken away by the decision of the National Security and Defense Council on behalf of the president, was directly involved in this. And the people who made money on this pipe were then converted into Medvedchuk's channels, which disseminated Russian narratives here. And those people should understand that they themselves need to go to the Security Service of Ukraine, surrender and testify. These are people who are known almost all over the country.. It is known who did business with them. These are unacceptable things.. In extreme cases, they will be found in the same way as Medvedchuk. Some of them are now in hiding.. Believe me, all the bastards who brought this disaster to us will be punished,” the NSDC Secretary warned..

Danilov warned that with each member of the Opposition Platform for Life “there will be a separate conversation”.

“They are now a little desperate, but do not think that they will not resist. They can lose everything, they can lose their lives, which they received here for Russian money - yachts, Monaco, etc.. Therefore, one must understand that this hydra has not yet been completed to the end, but, believe me, it will definitely be destroyed, ”he said..
