Volodymyr Zelensky seeks support! The name of the Ukrainian president also appeared in the Epstein files  - 1

The new package of documents from the "Epstein" files, published by the US Department of Justice on December 30, 2026, reveals an exchange of messages between former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and Jeffrey Epstein from May 1, 2019, reports the WION website, quoted by Focus.

In the correspondence, Summers asks about the situation in Ukraine, and Epstein replies that Volodymyr Zelensky is seeking support. In the same message, Epstein claims that Zelensky is "controlled by Israelis".

"We can discuss Ukraine. "I have some observations, having attended several Pinchuk conferences (Ukrainian businessman Viktor Pinchuk) and helped push for Ukrainian debt relief when Natalie Jaresko was finance minister," Summers wrote.

"Zelensky is looking for help. Putin is dismissive and says he is controlled by the Israelis," Epstein replied.

Zelensky's name is mentioned ten times in the "Epstein" files. According to the documents, Epstein has visited Ukraine several times. Emails between him and a member of the Rothschild family also discuss events and the political situation in the country. In February 2019, a month before Zelensky was elected president, Epstein was in Kiev. Former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko is mentioned 26 times in the same documents.

The documents also contain a conversation between Epstein and Boris Nikolic, in which the two discuss a possible trip to Russia to meet with Ilya Ponomarev. He is presented as a deputy in the Russian Duma and as someone associated with organizing actions against Vladimir Putin. Ponomarev is a politician of Russian origin who later worked in Ukraine and is known for voting against the annexation of Crimea.

In the correspondence, Nikolic writes:

"We need to go to Russia soon to meet with my friend Ilya Ponomarev. He is a deputy in the Duma, and together with Alyona - his very smart and nice girlfriend - are among the main organizers of the uprising against Putin. He represents the Novosibirsk region, but lives in Moscow. I worry about his safety. The stakes are high. In the future, he could replace Putin and become president himself, if he is not killed first,” writes Boris Nikolic, a former advisor to the “Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation“.

And according to documents published by the TASS publication, they contain allegations that “Volodymyr Zelensky is involved in trafficking in women and children”.

Zelensky's name appears in one of the published emails from 2024, with the identities of both the sender and the recipient hidden. The letter claims that Zelensky is involved in trafficking in women and children from Ukraine and that he may have had a relationship with modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel. Brunel was charged in France in 2020 with the rape of minors and later committed suicide in his cell before a court verdict was pronounced, TASS reported.

Zelensky's name appears in the documents of the "Epstein" case and in other contexts. In one of them, Epstein himself and the then Slovak Foreign Minister and OSCE Chairman-in-Office Miroslav Lajčák discuss the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election on a chat application, two days after Zelensky's victory. Epstein notes that the situation looks like a good opportunity for intervention, while his interlocutor expresses doubts about Zelensky's ability to govern Ukraine.
