“I will continue to work just as productively”: former intelligence chief Budanov shrugs off third Russian arrest order as an acknowledgment of his effectiveness
A Moscow court accuses him of prohibited methods of warfare.
In a third arrest order, Ukraine's presidential chief of staff Kyrylo Budanov dismisses it as an acknowledgment of his effectiveness. The Moscow court accuses him of using prohibited warfare methods and places him on an international wanted list. Budanov, who oversaw Ukraine's military intelligence during the war, views the court's decision as absurd and irrelevant to him.
He maintains that his work is forcing the enemy to panic, and he will continue to work productively despite the charges. The Russian accusations align with operations attributed to Ukrainian intelligence, such as the Crimean Bridge blast and over 100 drone strikes on Russian territory.
