You read it correctly, Zelensky's ex advisor from 2022-2023, Alexey Arestovych, who had to flee Ukraine because Zelensky wanted to kill or jail him says Zelensky likely ordered the shooting of former Ukrainian presidential advisor and an active politician, Andrey Portnov, who lived in Spain. He was shot and killed yesterday dropping of his kids at an American school. Portnov was in Ukraine from 2019 till 2022 and apparently won defamation cases against Kiev Dependent in 2024 and against other far right Ukrainian media outlets who called him "Russian linked" (sounds familiar).

Bystander snapped a pic after the man was killed. He was dropping off his kids at a school. Two or more shooters, several shots followed by a head shot.

This Portnov character won a big defamation case in 2024 against media outlets(not financially wise, but in terms of clearing his name).

On 23 September 2024, the Shevchenkivskyi District Court in Kyiv ruled in favour of the Ukrainian politician Andriy Portnov in a defamation case against the news outlets Statewatch, The Kyiv Independent and Lb.ua. The case stemmed from a recent article, in which Portnov was described as “pro-Russian” and a person “infamous for his open support for Russia.” The court ordered the outlets to rectify these claims and pay Portnov 80,000 hryvnias (€1,739.37). The Kyiv Independent’s chief editor, Olga Rudenko, said that her outlet and the other defendants in this case would appeal the ruling. The impugned article was written by Glib Kanievskyi, then a Ukrainian journalist and currently an official of the Ministry of Defence, and published in several Ukrainian news outlets in September 2023. In the article, Kanievskyi suggested that Ukrainian officials impose sanctions on “petty pro-Russian politicians” but ignore more high-profile cases. Portnov served as a top official in the administration of former President Viktor Yanukovych and left the country for the Russian Federation after the 2014 Revolution of Dignity, before returning to Ukraine in 2019. In 2021, Portnov was sanctioned by the United States for alleged high-level corruption, especially in Ukraine’s judicial system. Portnov sued the author of the report and the news outlets that ran it, including Statewatch, LB.ua, and The Kyiv Independent. This lawsuit is the latest in a series of successful legal battles against media waged by Portnov. According to IPI, Portnov had filed lawsuits at least four more times since April 2023 against media critical of his activities such as the weekly NV, the TV channels Hromadske, Pryamiy and Channel 5, and the news websites Ukrainska Pravda, Censor.Net and Focus.ua. Three of these lawsuits were filed after the outlets described Portnov as “pro-Russian” or reported on his visits to the Russian Federation, while one case concerned the former official’s alleged involvement in an arson attack on a journalist’s car.

So the idiots on the left here and in EU were screaming that he's "saving a Democracy"and "western values" and Brandon admin funding that shithole's ""government" apparatus and army. Frankly, Trump still is, which is most likely temporary leverage to try to get Russia to a more reasonable terms, which will not happen.
You can't fund regimes that do dumb public assassinations like that. There's a reason Putin at least creates plausible deniability.
