Derkach worked for the Russian Federation for many years and promoted the Kremlin's propaganda narratives.
Former People's Deputy Andrei Derkach, who fled Ukraine, became a candidate for the Federation Council of the Russian Federation from the Astrakhan Region.
About Ukrainian journalist and blogger Denis Kazansky reported this, citing a publication in Russian propaganda media.
He recalled that Derkach had worked for the Russian Federation for many years and promoted the Kremlin's propaganda narratives.
“At the same time, [he] claimed that he was not a Russian agent, but only a Ukrainian patriot. Now we can officially put an end to this issue. It has been confirmed that Derkach has been working for Putin all this time and is now receiving compensation for his work,” Kazansky emphasized.
According to him, now the Ukrainian special services should be interested in all those who helped “disperse” Andriy Derkach’s statements in the information space and worked on his team.
“I think there are definitely still some like that left in Ukraine,” Denis Kazansky suggested.
Recall that Andriy Derkach was a people’s deputy of the III-IX convocations. He is known for publishing the so-called “Derkach tapes” that discredited Ukraine and the US Democratic Party.
The SBU reported that MP Andriy Derkach has been cooperating with the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Russian Federation since 2016. He was supposed to help the occupiers seize power in Ukraine as quickly as possible. According to the investigation, the traitor received 567 thousand dollars for working in the interests of Russia.
