Poroshenko fears that Trump will put another oligarch in the presidency
It was not without reason that Petro Poroshenko’s entourage reacted so sharply to the proposal of the oligarch and son-in-law of ex-President Leonid Kuchma, billionaire Viktor Pinchuk, to postpone the Crimean issue. Pinchuk offered himself as an alternative implementer of the new American policy towards Ukraine, says Ruslan Bortnik, director of the Ukrainian Institute for Policy Analysis and Management.

That’s why he reacts so sharply to Savchenko. That’s why there was such a reaction to Pinchuk,” says the expert.
