Parubiy assassination suspect details plot, seeks Russia transfer

Mikhail Selnikov, accused of assassinating former Ukrainian parliamentary speaker Andriy Parubiy, disclosed in a Lviv court hearing how he prepared the attack and planned to flee to Russia, and requested a prisoner exchange to Russia. The claim is based on his own testimony, which is unverified and may be self-serving. This is a high-profile political assassination in Ukraine, with implications for domestic security and Russia-Ukraine tensions.
