The Russian dictator's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that captured lawmaker Viktor Medvedchuk is not a citizen of Russia, and the Kremlin does not know whether he wants Russia to interfere in his situation. The pro-Kremlin lawmaker suspected of treason fled from house arrest in February and was captured by Ukraine on April 12. Kyiv has proposed exchanging him for Ukrainian prisoners of war.
