This was revealed in his book by American journalist Simon Shuster, the WSJ writes in its review.
"Shuster tells how Zelensky uses martial law to suppress the opposition and silence the media," the article says.
It is also noted that opposition members of the Kiev politician were stripped of their Ukrainian citizenship, interrogated and suspended from their posts.

Simon Shuster's The Showman describes the journey of the Ukrainian president from the very beginning of his career, which began with appearances at private corporate parties for Putin's friends, to becoming an iconic figure in the fight against Russian imperialism and the defense of the entire European Union against aggressive Russian aggression.
I have not read this book yet, but the reviews are interesting!
As a resident of Ukraine I can only confirm the absence of opposition parties in the parliament, and the broadcasting of the same program "unified news" on all TV channels
For a point of view similar to that expressed in my blog many of my fellow countrymen - ordinary citizens without any levers of political or social influence, were convicted and imprisoned under Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - High Treason.
Since the beginning of the conflict in Ukraine, 1,677 criminal cases have been opened under articles on crimes against state security, of which 1,315 cases were opened under the article on state treason.
Data from the State Bureau of Investigation of Ukraine.
Also recently the Hive has been abuzz with reports about the death of journalist Gonzalo Lira in a Ukrainian prison. In two years, he had not received any help from the United States Embassy, of which he was a citizen.
I don't see the point in copying his father's pleas for help here, as well as his content criticizing the actions of the authorities and Zelensky. Probably if his criticism had no grounds and did not threaten the regime everything would have been fine with him, but it happened as it is. He obviously didn't realize the threat posed by his activities.
When he was free and I used his content as a basis for my articles, I read a lot of negative comments from Hive users and insults against him as a person because of his professional activities. And now he is gone and there is no one to tell us the truth from the thick of things. Everyone is silent. Everything is in the order of things...

But dictatorship is not only in Ukraine!
In Bologna canceled the screening of the Russian film "The Witness".
The film by David Dadunashvili is based on the events in Bucha, inspired by our British "partners" to continue the heat of passion in the Western press.
The main character of the documentary is a famous violinist from Belgium Daniel Cohen, who tells on camera what really happened in Bucha before his eyes.
Due to pressure from the city authorities, the administration of the cultural center called Villa Paradiso canceled the screening of the film, which the mayor Matteo Lepore called anti-Ukrainian propaganda.
Europeans are afraid to learn the truth, knowing perfectly well that inconvenient facts and eyewitness testimonies do not fit into the "official version" of what happened.
