The Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine shrugs: the sanctions against Azarov and Portnov have already been lifted because the prosecutor's office investigators did not provide the relevant evidence. In addition, if the Ukrainian investigation does not provide evidence by June 6, then sanctions will be lifted from Yanukovych and Klyuev.

It became known according to the people's deputy from the Poroshenko Bloc Dmitry Dobrodomov, who told reporters about the results of the meeting of the parliamentary committee on combating and combating corruption.
“At a meeting of the anti-corruption committee, we heard shocking information from representatives of the Prosecutor General’s Office; sanctions against Azarov and Portnov have already been lifted only because the prosecutor’s office investigators did not provide relevant evidence on time. In addition, if the investigation does not provide evidence, sanctions will be lifted from such odious figures as Yanukovych and Klyuyev by June 6,” the deputy said.
Let us recall that on December 18 it was reported that Brussels was preparing to lift sanctions against Portnov and Klyuev. At the same time, the day before, MP Sergei Leshchenko, according to his sources in the EU, also announced the imminent lifting of sanctions against a number of representatives of the Yanukovych regime.
As is known, the EU introduced restrictions in the form of seizure of assets for a period of one year; on March 9, 2015, their validity period automatically expired.
