Volodymyr Zelenskyy has imposed sanctions on his former press secretary turned critic Iuliia Mendel, according to a presidential decree published Sunday evening. Mendel has increasingly peddled numerous falsehoods and rumors about Zelenskyy and Ukraine that echo Russian state propaganda since she was sacked before the full blown war began. Recently she pushed many of these in an interview with Tucker Carlson that was widely derided, especially in Ukraine. She left Ukraine several months ago and resides in the US.
