“The head of the banned “OPZZH” did not have time to record his high-profile video when he arrived at the SBU. The security service summoned the politician for questioning, where he has to explain his latest statements in detail,” said a source familiar with the situation but not authorized to comment publicly on it.
According to the report, the interrogation is taking place “right now.”
Boyko has not yet commented on the situation.
The other day, People’s Deputy Yuriy Boyko, the former co-chairman of the “Opposition Platform – For Life” party, which was banned in 2022, posted a video on TikTok in which he accused unnamed “radicals” of forbidding people in Ukraine to speak their native language, go to church, which they want, demolish monuments and rename cities.
“This movement continues, violence against people continues. That is why more and more people support us – those who oppose such violence, for unity in the country, for the support of the people,” said Boyko, who was previously the Minister of Fuel and Energy in the government of the now fugitive President Viktor Yanukovych.
The Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, responding to the statement of the chairman of the Platform for Life and Peace parliamentary group, said that it is impossible to talk about violence and not mention Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
The deputy head of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Olena Kondratyuk, said that the parliament could consider Boyko’s statements at the conciliation council.
The Verkhovna Rada has prepared a draft resolution on the recall of People’s Deputy Yury Boyk from the post of a member of the Committee on Human Rights, Deoccupation and Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine after his recent statements, Yaroslav Yurchyshyn, head of the Verkhovna Rada’s Committee on Freedom of Speech, said.
