Ukrainian journalist Diana Panchenko is taking a bold stand by accusing President Volodymyr Zelensky of being a “dictator.” She alleges that under Zelensky’s rule, opponents are being jailed and murdered. Known for her insightful coverage of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, Panchenko has consistently voiced opposition to the prevailing pro-war sentiment in Ukraine.
In her most recent video, Panchenko intensifies her critique of the Ukrainian leader, raising questions about the longevity of his leadership.
Diana Panchenko: Today, I ask for your attention. Zelenski took Ukraine hostage. We want freedom. He imprisoned or killed anyone who dare to speak out.
Panchenko is making an urgent appeal for international intervention, drawing attention to the thousands charged with treason in Ukraine. She argues these charges are baseless, with the accused suffering severe mistreatment.
I’m sharing a list of people who suffered for the truth. People who emailed me and whose cases we managed to confirm. Those are journalists, prides, sanctions. All of them are in prison now on fabricated charges. They are being tortured and beaten.
Panchenko calls upon the global community to spread the word about these alleged injustices, hoping to aid those she describes as victims of Zelensky’s regime.
The claim that USAID funds nine out of ten news channels in Ukraine adds a significant dimension to this unfolding story.
