The speaker of the Right Sector banned in the Russian Federation, former Moscow liberal journalist Artem Skoropadsky, received a letter from the Investigative Committee, which was delivered to him in Kyiv by an employee of the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office of the Podolsk district of Kyiv.
The nationalist stated this in his blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The letter contained a demand for answers to a number of questions, which Skoropadsky refused to fulfill, citing the Ukrainian Constitution.
“Today Russia knocked on my door. In the afternoon, an employee of the Podolsk district prosecutor's office came and showed me a request from the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, where the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation asks me to answer many questions (I rewrote them, but promised not to post them, I keep my promise).
Naturally, I sent the RF Investigative Committee to ... th, wrote that according to the Constitution I have the right not to testify against myself, and crossed out the rest of the pages.
For those who don’t know, a case has been filed against me in the Russian Federation for extremism for being one of the organizers of the Right Sector.
I, like, living in Ukraine, am a terrorist in the Russian Federation. The employee of the prosecutor’s office is great - he immediately said that I don’t have to answer questions about the Constitution,” Skoropadsky said.
He also demanded that Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko grant Ukrainian citizenship to all foreign mercenaries so that they could avoid punishment in the Russian Federation: “I still have questions for Petro Poroshenko - when will you give citizenship to foreign Maidan participants and foreign front-line soldiers? I have the impression that we will only get this answer from the new president. Well, if I live, I won’t have long left. We will also raise the question with Poroshenko. About Maidan and the front, for example.
And one more thing - that request from Moscow indicated my address in Kyiv. In a request from the RF IC. My address is in Kyiv. Be careful".
