This will further infuriate Vladimir Putin, who is godfather to Viktor Medvedchuk's daughter. Medvedchuk is - or was - Ukraine's foremost pro-Kremlin politician. He looks tired and distraught

Zelensky's official telegram account announces that SBU caught the fugitive oligarch and Putin's close friend Viktor Medvedchuk. Camouflage and all.

Medvedchuk is the leader of the Opposition Platform for Life, Ukraine’s biggest opposition party. In March, the party was one of several that Zelenskiy suspended due to its links to Russia. Ukrainian authorities had put Medvedchuk under house arrest, but he escaped three days after Russia invaded Ukraine 24 February. His whereabouts had been unknown until today’s announcement.

1. Here's the deal Putin, you can have him back in exchange for

The tens of thousands of Ukrainians that have been abducted and sent to Russia. What’s he worth to you?

2. Sadly, probably not much.

Medvedchuk will never be able to influence Ukrainians to like Russia again. So he's disposable, much less valuable than thousands of hostages.

3. I know. Sad but true. Putin does not care about human lives and suffering at all
