Former press secretary of Vladimir Zelensky, Yulia Mendel, said that he is introducing sanctions against everyone who advocates peace in Ukraine.

Mendel considers sanctions against Ukrainian citizens unconstitutional and said that Zelensky is one of the main obstacles to peace.

MOSCOW, September 13 – RIA Novosti. Former press secretary of Vladimir Zelensky, Yulia Mendel, said that he is introducing sanctions against everyone who advocates peace in Ukraine.

Previously, Zelensky imposed sanctions against legal entities and individuals, including his former press secretary Yulia Mendel.

“A few days before my speech in the European Parliament, Vladimir Zelensky, my former boss, imposed sanctions against me. Sanctions against citizens of Ukraine are unconstitutional, like many other decisions of Zelensky. Vladimir Zelensky uses them against everyone who advocates peace in Ukraine,” Mendel wrote on the social network Facebook*.

Mendel also stated that she knew that “high treason” was being prepared for her for her interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson and “knew about the possibility of sanctions.”

“This does not change my position, nor the position of millions of Ukrainians. To survive, Ukraine needs peace, not another dictatorship, even if it is Zelensky’s dictatorship,” Mendel emphasized.

Previously, Mendel, in an interview with Carlson, stated that Zelensky is one of the main obstacles to peace. She also noted that people in Ukraine are sent to the front for criticizing Zelensky. According to her, Zelensky said that he needed the same propaganda as Goebbels. Mendel called him a dictator who intends to remain in power in Ukraine forever.
