A representative of the GUR denied that MP Shevchenko was an intelligence officer. The MP had previously called on Zelenskyy to negotiate with Putin and showed his GUR ID.

People's Deputy Yevhen Shevchenko, who called on President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy to start a dialogue with Russia, is not an employee of the Main Intelligence Directorate. This was reported to UNN by a representative of the GUR, Andriy Yusov.

"Of course, I am not an employee. Those statements that are anti-state should be checked by state authorities and law enforcement agencies," Yusov said.

Addendum

Yesterday, on November 7, MP Shevchenko called on the President of Ukraine to negotiate with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin on his Telegram channel.

Shevchenko also called for the return of MPs suspected of treason to the session hall.

In 2022, Shevchenko presented a certificate from the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine as proof that he was indeed serving in the intelligence service.

The head of the President's Office, Andriy Yermak, responded to the MP, noting that "some MPs seem to be confused about national security, national interests and the future of the country.

"If in their minds national interests = Ukraine's defeat, then they are making a big mistake in the interests of Russia. The plan for Ukraine's victory, the peace formula, is the path to justice," said Yermak.
