Number 22 on the electoral list of the Servant of the People party for the early elections to the Verkhovna Rada, Andrei Kholodov, is the godfather of politician Viktor Medvedchuk, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This is discussed in the investigation grant-eating program “Schemes” (a joint project of Radio Liberty and the TV channel UA:Pershy).
The story says that Kholodov is a non-public person associated with the activities of MAFs in Kyiv.
Radio Liberty also published horrific incriminating evidence on the candidate - the children of Kholodov and his wife, clothing designer Ekaterina Shakhovskaya, were baptized by popular TV presenter Oksana Marchenko, the wife of the co-founder of the Opposition Platform - For Life party Medvedchuk, who, in turn, is the godfather of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.
Grant-eating investigators delved into Marchenko’s social network accounts and found compromising photos. In particular, Marchenko on his Instagram calls Kholodov’s wife “the mother of his godson.”
Marchenko also has photos together with the children of Kholodov and Shakhovskaya, whom she calls godsons.
According to Schemes, a villa in Vienna, purchased in 2013 for €6 million, is registered in Shakhovskaya’s name. Journalists noted that Kholodov’s property is located not far from the home of Ukrainian businessman Dmitry Firtash.
On June 9, in Kyiv, in the National Botanical Garden named after Grishko, a congress of the political party “Servant of the People” was held, at which the political force presented its candidates for people’s deputies.
The “Chesno” movement noted that the “Kholodov” state of emergency, according to the YouControl service, was closed on June 10, precisely after the “Servant of the People” party congress. Florentino LLC is registered under Kholodov, the company specializes in “mobile food”, and as an individual entrepreneur, until June 10, he worked in the field of consulting on commercial activities and management, activists of the organization found out.
