Russia has added Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to its list of wanted criminals, as revealed by a government database on Saturday.
Zelensky’s name appeared on the Russian Interior Ministry’s “wanted” list, an online repository of alleged criminals sought by authorities. The listing indicated that the Ukrainian leader is wanted under a specific article of the criminal code, though no further details were provided.
Russian officials have not immediately commented on the reasons behind Zelensky’s inclusion on the list. Moscow has been targeting Zelensky since the onset of its military offensive in February 2022.
