Therefore, there is every reason to assume that he knows what he is talking about.<\/p>\n<p>Let us recall that detectives of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine suspect Timur Mindich of creating and leading a criminal organization (Part 1, Article 255 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).<\/p>\n<p>Assuming that Bohdan is right and NABU&#8217;s suspicions are not unfounded, it is difficult to refrain from drawing disappointing conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>President of Ukraine Zelensky, together with the secretary and members of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, considers the dissemination of alleged recordings of conversations among alleged participants and leaders of a criminal organization to be an attempt to discredit the top leadership of the state. And they are applying sanctions for this.<\/p>\n<p>That is, there is a criminal organization operating in Ukraine, which includes the top leadership of the state. This organization uses state funds and property as its own &#8220;common fund.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Law enforcement agencies and the sanction mechanism are used to protect the interests of a criminal organization.<\/p>\n<p>What can you say? We did it together.<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t hide the fact that the reasonable assumption of who could lead such a criminal organization makes me feel terrible.<\/p>\n<p>PS While I was writing this short text, the State Bureau of Investigation reported suspicions to another former close aide of the current president. State Bureau officials do not hide the fact that they do not understand human language very well. However, with the help of linguistic and psychological expertise, they realized that the publications of the People&#8217;s Deputy (I assume Dubinsky) on Telegram, Facebook,, and YouTube harm the state and information security of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>They systematically silence their own henchmen.<\/p>\n<p>So that everyone would be afraid, so that they wouldn&#8217;t be laughed at.<\/p>\n<p>Also, follow <strong>\u201cPryamyi\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, X,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 Materials published in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section reflect the opinion of the author of the publication, who bears full responsibility for the accuracy of the information.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The editorial staff of prm.ua may not share the opinions expressed in the author&#8217;s material.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The owner of the webpage in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section is the author of the publication.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After reviewing the recent video of the former presidential whisperer, who suddenly fell into disgrace due to sanctions, I have several value judgments and well-founded assumptions.
