Arestovych revealed the details of Medvedchuk's detention

Advisor to the Head of the President's Office of Ukraine Oleksii Arestovych shared the first details of the detention of Vladimir Putin's ally Viktor Medvedchuk.

He revealed some of the details on the FeiginLIVE YouTube channel.

Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) said they had foiled an attempt by Russia to get Medvedchuk out of the country. In an interview with Mark Feigin, Arestovych noted that the SBU detained Medvedchuk somewhere other than Kyiv.

As the adviser to the head of the President's Office emphasized, he was arrested "delicately".

According to Arestovych, Medvedchuk is a "very valuable resource" because he can give them information on who was engaged in promoting pro-Russian sentiment in Ukraine.

Arestovych noted that Medvedchuk will tell investigators a lot of interesting details.
