Poroshenko should expel People’s Deputy Knyazhitsky from the faction due to connections with the FSB, expert

If this does not happen, questions will arise for Poroshenko himself. Political expert Pyotr Oleshchuk writes about this, commenting on the appearance in the media of joint photos of the people’s deputy from “Eurosolidarity” Knyazhitsky and FSB agent Sivkovich.

“Considering that the status of a people’s deputy allows one to have access to information of national importance, it would be quite logical, especially during the war with Russia, for law enforcement to deal with the people’s deputy and godfather of the FSB, and for Poroshenko to exclude him from the faction. Of course, if they do not have common interests,” writes the expert.

He does not exclude the presence of such interests, given that the cooperation of Poroshenko’s people’s deputies with the FSB was preceded by trade with Russia, business with ORDLO, common affairs with Medvedchuk and common political interests with Putin.

With his statement, political expert Oleshchuk responded to photos of meetings between the people's deputy from the EU faction Knyazhytsky and suspected treason Vladimir Sivkovich in Turkey and Austria after the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war.

“Sivkovich was a well-known former KGB officer and current representative of the FSB, and at the time of his meetings with Knyazhitsky he was already under treason and was in Russia. It is unlikely that his godfather Nikolai Knyazhitsky did not know this. Moreover, since the beginning of the 2000s, Knyazhitsky worked as an assistant to Sivkovich, who then prepared hundreds of assassination operations, the dispersal of the Maidan, networks of “mole” in Ukraine and much more. Despite this, Sivkovich and Knyazhytsky had common affairs, they were co-founders of public organizations and together influenced Ukrainian politics,” notes Oleshchuk.

Oleschuk also drew attention to the meeting place between Poroshenko’s ally and FSB agent Sivkovich: Turkey and Austria. Türkiye is a neutral platform for meetings between Russian spies and their agents. Austria is known for its ban on extradition.

As you know, yesterday information appeared in the media that a member of the Poroshenko faction, People’s Deputy Nikolai Knyazhitsky, continues to maintain close ties with the state traitor and FSB agent Vladimir Sivkovich, who fled to Russia in 2014, where he works for the Russian special services.

According to information, Knyazhitsky and Sivkovich continued to communicate even after the annexation of Crimea by Russia, the Illovay cauldron and all the atrocities of Russia in Ukraine: the people’s deputy met with a traitor at a resort in Turkey in 2017, and subsequently (at least in 2018-2019) in Israel and Austria.
