NABU and SAP twice appealed to the SBU to impose sanctions against the Region Party MP Ivanyushchenko, who is hiding abroad
At a briefing, Kryvonos said that the bureau twice contacted the SBU about imposing sanctions on the Region Party MP who was recently located in Monaco by Mykhailo Tkach.
From these details it can be established that this concerns former Region Party MP Yuriy Ivanyushchenko.
Earlier, media reported that the SBU refused NABU’s first request to impose sanctions against Ivanyushchenko. The Service did not find sufficient information about harm to national security.
Although during the July attack on NABU and SAP in 2025 year, the Security Service itself called Ivanyushchenko “an FSB resident in the DNR.”
The SBU did not respond to the second request to impose sanctions.
However, when the SBU needs to put pressure on someone, they easily open cases. For example, Kryvonos recalled the case against an NABU detective who was investigating Ruslan Magamedrasulov’s “Midas.”
Last year the SBU accused Magamedrasulov of attempting to do business in the RF, and publicly called him “a Russian mole.”
We followed the case from the first hearing and it turned out that the Service had no convincing evidence. Some of it the SBU even fabricated.
Yet something is stopping the Service from imposing sanctions on Ivanyushchenko, whom they themselves link to the FSB.
