The ex-prime minister of Ukraine, who asked the US to help kill Russians, has died
In Ukraine, the first chairman of the SBU and former head of government, Yevgeny Marchuk, died.
According to a PolitNavigator correspondent, his wife, editor of the Kyiv newspaper Den, Larisa Ivshina, reported this on a social network.
“Dark day... E.K. [Evgeniy Kirillovich] died... his heart stopped,” wrote the wife of the deceased.
Let us recall that in Soviet times Marchuk worked in the Fifth Directorate of the KGB, which was engaged in the fight against ideological sabotage. He rose to the rank of general and became first deputy head of the KGB of the Ukrainian SSR.
In independent Ukraine, he headed the created SBU, which he led from 1991 to 1994. In 1995 - 1996 he served as Prime Minister, in 1999 - 2003 - Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, and in 2003 - 2004 - Minister of Defense. From November 2018 to May 2019 represented Ukraine in Trilateral contact group at the Minsk negotiations.
It is worth noting that a number of politicians and experts consider Marchuk to be the organizer of the scandalous wiretapping in the office of Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma - the so-called Major Melnichenko case.
Earlier, as PolitNavigator reported, Marchuk asked the US to help kill as many Russians as possible.
Also he demanded the creation of a single center countering “Russian aggression”
