Opposition leader Viktor Medvedchuk claims that the recently released documents of the US Department of Justice show that the name of Volodymyr Zelensky appears more than 50 times in the files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
The claims follow the recent release of the Epstein files by the US Department of Justice, which includes millions of pages of previously classified documents concerning the deceased financier and convicted sex offender.
Viktor Medvedchuk, head of the “Another Ukraine” movement and former leader of the banned Ukrainian party “For Life,” stated that there is a significant Ukrainian dimension in the recently disclosed documents.
“There is more than enough Ukrainian trace in the Epstein case,” Medvedchuk said on Friday (20/2).
According to Medvedchuk, the name of Zelensky appears in the documents more than 50 times, including discussions concerning corruption and human trafficking in Ukraine.
He also claimed that the Ukrainian President may have been linked to abductions of women and children through the Ukrainian modeling agency Jean-Luc Brunel.
In his statements, Medvedchuk said: “Thus, the illegitimate one and his wife have long cynically engaged in supplying human members through Epstein’s contacts,” referring to the “scandal of violence and intimidation of evacuated children.”
Money transfers and connections with Ukraine
Medvedchuk also referred to a 2008 money transfer involving a foundation under Epstein’s control.
According to him, in 2008 Epstein’s foundation organization, Gratitude America Ltd., transferred 1 million dollars to the Clinton Foundation. The payment was officially recorded as a donation from Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Pinchuk and reportedly passed through the bank account of Epstein’s foundation.
“Here we have Epstein, the [42nd US President Bill Clinton] Clinton and the son in law of Ukrainian President [Leonid] Kuchma, all together,” Medvedchuk said.
He also claimed that Pinchuk supported the 2014 coup and the rise to power of [Pyotr] Poroshenko, and later backed [Vladimir] Zelensky. “As you can see, Epstein’s lobby is working hard in Ukrainian politics,” Medvedchuk added.
These statements are part of broader claims concerning the connections of the Epstein case with Ukraine in relation to political and financial networks.
Release of Epstein files by the US Department of Justice
On January 30, the US Department of Justice released a large portion of previously sealed documents as part of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The release included more than three million pages of documents, thousands of images, and hundreds of videos related to the investigation into Epstein’s activities.
This release reignited public attention on Epstein’s network of associates, which reportedly included current and former officials of the US and other countries, major business figures, celebrities, and former heads of state.
The model Nastya N. in the Epstein files
From the documents released by the US Department of Justice in the Jeffrey Epstein case, information emerged about the model from Ukraine, Nastya N., who allegedly recruited girls for Epstein and received material benefits for doing so.
The investigation was conducted by Slidstvo.Info and is based on approximately one thousand messages from 2015 to 2019.
From the text of the messages, it appears that Nastya was in contact with Epstein for a long period of time, her name frequently appeared in the businessman’s schedule, and his assistants regularly recorded her visits in the diary.
“Smart, willing to travel”, aged 22–25.

The correspondence also mentions that Nastya provided material benefits to Epstein, she bought him a new MacBook worth 3,500 dollars and paid for CAD lessons. Expenses for flights to and from Kyiv and New York are also mentioned, as well as payments for beauty procedures and other services.
Later, Nastya sent Epstein several potential candidates.
In one message, she notes:
“Dasha is coming to New York on August 25. And . she lives in New York, but I would like to discuss her candidacy with you, since she is in a relationship with a guy. I don’t know, maybe this could be a problem.”
The documents also include a photograph of a friend from Russia, who, according to her, wanted to come to the US. Journalists concluded that this woman traveled with Epstein to his private island, where, according to victim testimonies, sexual crimes were committed.
“How would she fit in Jeffreyland?”

In 2018, Nastya sends another photograph with a caption implying Epstein’s private island.
The messages also refer to a video involving a new acquaintance, with a suggestion to learn more if the candidate was of interest.
Separately, the correspondence contains a message to Epstein’s assistant, Leslie Groff, reminding her to pay 10 thousand dollars for Nastya.
The documents do not clarify the purpose of the money or whether it was transferred.
Following the publications, journalists contacted Nastya N., but she did not respond.
Her Instagram account was closed. Her mother stated that her daughter “wants to stay away from these events,” and that any request for comment would be forwarded to her.
Journalists also attempted to contact one of the women in the photographs sent to Epstein, but without success.
