Russian intelligence service FSB has searched for members of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's inner circle who would participate in an operation to kidnap and assassinate him.
Ukrainian authorities have arrested two colonels from the Ukrainian forces who had allegedly collaborated with Russians to plot the assassination of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. 'The attempt was planned under the supervision of employees of the 5th department of the FSB as a gift to Vladimir Putin for the inauguration,' Ukrainian Secret Service SBU said in a post on Telegram after detaining two 'traitor' colonels.
Western leaders from the United States and the European Union did not attend Putin's 6th inauguration, held on Tuesday, Voice of America reported.
