Kiev economist Vsevolod Stepanyuk stated this in a commentary to PolitNavigator.
“The fact that a film crew from the presidential television channel was present during the arrest of translator Groysman and his demonstrative exit through the central entrance suggests that this was not done by chance. Perhaps the arrest was made in order to show how well the SBU and other structures that are tied to the president work. Perhaps this was done to divert attention from the frankly unsuccessful actions of these structures in relation to Saakashvili. We very widely use PR technologies for moving the needle to another object,” Stepanyuk is confident.
The arrest of Groysman's translator was seen as a PR stunt for the SBU.
