The main purpose of the assassination attempt on Budanov’s wife, according to Podolyak, was to sow panic among Ukrainian society.
The Office of the President believes that Russia was involved in the poisoning of the wife of chief intelligence officer Kirill Budanov, Marianna Budanova.
This opinion was expressed by Advisor to the Head of the Presidential Office Mikhail Podolyak in an interview 24 channels.

“Let’s be objective from the point of view that Russia, unfortunately, had an “open door” with Ukraine for 30 years. It actively developed not only the information, political or cultural space in Ukraine, but also formed certain agent networks. With much less legend they were mothballed or showed themselves immediately,” he noted.
Podolyak noted that a large network of Russian intelligence services operates on the territory of Ukraine.
“They are periodically found and arrested by the extremely professional SBU. But let us note that a certain number of agents with a great depth of legend are still on the territory of Ukraine. Do they have access to anything, can they commit any excesses? Yes, they can Therefore, we must understand: the war is going on everywhere, even in Kyiv. Is everyone at risk? Yes. Should you be careful? Undoubtedly. Do we need to talk about this? Yes, because this is fair information, so that we feel that the war has not disappeared,” the politician emphasized.
According to Podolyak, Russia is trying to bring its agents into Ukraine using third countries.
“The war today is not only the demarcation line and the front line itself. It is also attacks throughout Ukraine with missiles and drones, Russian agent work, DRGs in the Sumy and Chernihiv regions. This is an attempt to bring some additional agents here, including through territory of third countries.” “All this is working today,” said the adviser to the head of the OP.
He added that the investigation into the matter is currently ongoing.
“It is clear that as a result of countermeasures we will see whether there is a large network in this, or whether it was some random agents who were doing something there, etc. The purpose of this is clear. Again, Russia wants to get the maximum increase in panic sentiment here, because this will be an additional burden.” This will increase the percentage of disappointed people who will be even more frightened. Russia’s psychological tactics are clear. Our tactics are to understand that we are in a state of war,” Podolyak concluded.
Let us remind you that NSU reserve major Getman provided two versions of the assassination attempt on Budanov’s wife and GUR employees.
