Regarding today’s absolutely disgraceful situation involving certain units of the Security Service and Defense Intelligence of Ukraine that occurred in Kyiv. We spoke with Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko. The Prosecutor General and the State Bureau of Investigation will establish all the details – all testimony and statements from those involved in this incident will be checked, and the entire situation will be investigated step by step. There must be accountability, including personnel decisions by the heads of the special services, regarding those involved in what happened. And there must be internal investigations within both services. Shooting here in Ukraine is permitted only at Russian occupiers, in defense of Ukraine. Our state will never regard any other shootout as acceptable.
