Former presidential press secretary Yuliya Mendel has been sanctioned by the National Security and Defense Council, — the president’s decree.
Mendel ended up among 10 Russians and Ukrainians who were sanctioned for spreading disinformation and Russian propaganda and for supporting the Russian Federation’s aggression against Ukraine.
In May she gave an interview to Tucker Carlson in which, among other things, she claimed that Zelenskyy was allegedly prepared to “give up Donbas” to Russia in 2022. And in the coming days Mendel plans to take part in a joint event with representatives of Germany’s AfD, which advocates ending support for Ukraine and rapprochement with Russia.
