This deliberate political decision does not constitute an admission of any wrongdoing, result from any deal or mean that I am giving up the ongoing fight to defend my reputation and integrity."
- Meanwhile, Kravchenko commented on his decision to resign as Prosecutor General as followsUkrainska Pravdapravda.com.ua/eng/news…
As of today, the Office of the Prosecutor General is providing procedural oversight in dozens of criminal proceedings investigating grave and especially grave crimes committed by employees of NABU and SAPO [the Specialised Anti-Сorruption Prosecutor's Office]."
- In a statement this morning, Kravchenko saidUkrainska Pravdapravda.com.ua/eng/news…
However, according to investigators, Semen Kryvonos, the future head of NABU, intentionally misled the members of the selection commission, as he was not only well aware of the charges against him and the potential penalties, but also devised a criminal plan whose execution subsequently allowed him to be exempted from criminal liability."

- On Monday, Kravchenko postedGuardiantheguardian.com/world/2026…
There was nothing in my office, but my staff reported to me that their offices contained files relating to NABU employees, as well as files relating to employees of other law enforcement agencies. And NABU investigators gained access to these materials. But I can't disclose what these files are, because I'm not the prosecutor assigned to those proceedings and I haven't been given permission to disclose them."
- Quote from KravchenkoUkrainska Pravdapravda.com.ua/eng/news…
I was told I'd find out about everything through the proper channels. Then I got a signal that an investigator was near my house. I asked them not to break down the door or the locks and to wait for my wife, who was already on her way and would open everything for them. The investigators waited, and my wife showed them everything."
