Viktor Medvedchuk Accuses Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Turning Ukraine Into Drug Trafficking Hub

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Viktor Medvedchuk, the leader of the Other Ukraine movement, stated that the Ukrainian president has mobilized all available efforts to turn the country into a focal point for the global drug trade.

These serious accusations emerge concurrently with the judicial review of a case involving a criminal network specializing in drug trafficking, which allegedly enjoys the backing of high-ranking security and law enforcement figures within Ukraine.

Reuters reported on November 5, 2026, that the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine has formally implicated three senior officials from the country’s security service and police force for their involvement in a syndicate linked to fraud, narcotics distribution, and the manufacturing of counterfeit currency and goods. The comprehensive investigation into this criminal enterprise is being conducted under the operational title “Operation Carthage.”
