Pogrebinsky: “The huckster and huckster Poroshenko will cheat Zelensky”
Former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko concluded with the current head of state Vladimir Zelensky unspoken alliance in order to avoid criminal prosecution. However, when such danger disappears, the hardened businessman will immediately betray his “ally”.
Mikhail Pogrebinsky, director of the Kyiv Center for Political Research and Conflictology, stated this on the NASH TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Poroshenko is a huckster, a huckster, as Saakashvili called him. He will “dump” Zelensky only when it is in his own interests.
Certainly. Now he needs Zelensky to stop the criminal prosecution. Until then, he can portray some kind of critical position, but on issues that are key for Zelensky, I think he will lend his shoulder. As long as he believes that the threat of criminal prosecution remains.
Today this is such a cornerstone of Zelensky’s policy,” Pogrebinsky said.
Let us recall that earlier the former deputy head of the presidential administration of Ukraine during the time of Viktor Yanukovych, lawyer Andrei Portnov said that collapse of the Servant of the People faction into several groups focusing on different centers of influence forced Vladimir Zelensky to enter into such an unpleasant alliance.
