Petro Poroshenko became the richest MP in Europe, although his assets are registered in the name of his son
Over the past year, the leader of “European Solidarity” Petro Poroshenko increased his fortune to $1.2 billion, but transferred it to his son Oleksii. This was done to avoid associations with wartime enrichment. About this stated political expert Petro Oleschuk.
“For this year, he became richer from 950 million to $1.2 billion. In a country that is fighting hard, Poroshenko earned 22% more than in 2023”Oleschuk noted
The statement also said that Poroshenko could be proud of such achievements, because at the beginning of the war he was only 12th in the list of the richest Ukrainians, and now he is in the top three. However, the deputy decided to avoid attention to his income and issued assets to his eldest son Oleksii.
“However, the People’s Deputy was ashamed to record such records in the war. And he recorded them for his eldest son Oleksiy. Why? Because there is nothing to take from Oleksiy: he fled the country at the beginning of the invasion; he, unlike his father, is not going to harm the Ukrainians ; he does not play on the blood and dance on the bones of the defenders. He simply enjoys life in London and Monaco.”, – noted the political scientist.
The practice of transferring assets to relatives or trusted persons is not new for Poroshenko’s faction in the Verkhovna Rada. Such actions, according to Oleshka, have long become a common practice in Ukrainian politics.
