Podolak, “Putin’s pro-Putin parties in Italy took money from the Kremlin”
“We have elements that we confirm that someone in Europe, even among the Italian parties, took money from the Kremlin, but we cannot disclose it because that would mean interfering in the politics of your country.” This was stated by Mikhailo Podolyak, adviser to the office of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in an interview with the newspaper La Repubblica. “It is now known that the Union has spent 300 million euros in recent years to finance some political movements in the European Union, and in doing so, tried to influence national and Union policies,” continued Podolak, who was also the head of the negotiating team that tried to find a diplomatic solution with the Russians months ago. . But in the famous American report in which 300 million was mentioned, Italy did not appear. “We are aware of the behavior of some parties, and sometimes Italian ones, that take positions openly in favor of Putin, and argue, for example, that Russia, for one reason or another, has the right to attack Ukraine,” noting that we cannot speak publicly about who received the money, Zelensky’s adviser added. Russian for pressure purposes. Certainly, at the intelligence level, our two countries cooperate. I have reason to believe that all the basic data is there: who took and how much.”
