According to the President, the sanctions will not be the last. The sanctions were imposed because of the withdrawal of billions of hryvnias during the war, Zelenskyy said.

I'm just surprised that financial monitoring hasn't shown us anything before. I didn't see it, and it's hard to say how it was before me. Now the Security Service and financial monitoring show billions. And all these people, Medvedchuk and Poroshenko, are partners in this case, but I don't want to blame them, the courts do that. It's not like someone is behind bars because of sanctions. Sanctions are restrictions on the use of certain money that was earned in such an illegal way 

Zelenskyy also said that he had information about alleged money laundering through funds aimed at supporting the Armed Forces. According to him, money from the funds was transferred to members of his party.

The President also added that those who have been sanctioned can return the withdrawn funds to the budget. They will be directed to the Armed Forces. Then the sanctions will be lifted, Zelensky said.
