Quote: "Unfortunately, there are things going on here, in the rear of Ukraine, that make external enemies seem unnecessary. This is truly an internal enemy.

What’s happening with the Medical and Social Assessment Boards (MSAB) and the audacity of certain individuals – particularly prosecutors – who used their connections with the MSABs to obtain fake disability statuses.

I expect swift and decisive action from law enforcement, especially from the Security Service of Ukraine, the State Bureau of Investigation, and the Prosecutor General’s Office. I have scheduled a meeting of the National Security and Defence Council."
