At a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) on Wednesday, sanctions were imposed against MP and opposition leader Petro Poroshenko, the European Solidarity party said in a statement.
“The National Security and Defense Council has just made an unconstitutional, politically motivated decision to impose sanctions against me, Petro Poroshenko, as the leader of the opposition and the fifth president, with absolutely illegal restrictions. This crime has many accomplices: Zelenskyy’s entire team, the Cabinet of Ministers, which was ‘bent’ to the absurd request, and members of his National Security and Defense Council, who quietly raised their hands,” Poroshenko said in a video address.
