Viktor Medvedchuk, a pro-Russian politician whose daughter’s godfather is Russian President Vladimir Putin, has announced plans to create a new political movement in order to unite Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s "opponents". "When we unite people, find out their attitude, and for some reason I am sure that this position is against the authorities, against Zelenskyy, it will be completely different." According to Medvedchuk, the newly created movement should "consolidate all constructive social and political forces".
