As stated by Kuznetsov radio station Says Moscow, it was decided to write a letter after Savchenko went on a dry hunger strike in order to “try to make her calm down.”

“We decided to write a letter supposedly from Poroshenko and contacted Savchenko’s lawyer Feigin. On behalf of the Poroshenko administration we talked to him, he assured that he was ready to convey any messages from the president. We sent him materials with a request to stop the hunger strike and a promise to give Savchenko the post of minister. We also recommended that Nadezhda confess to the crime, and Feigin promised to work on this, that Nadezhda would hear this request and admit guilt,” Kuznetsov said.

According to him, after that, Feygin was called by a real spokesman and expressed his indignation.
