Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko stated this at a briefing in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to him, Kurchenko financed Saakashvili in exchange for future cooperation and lobbying of his business interests.
“It has been established that a person close to Saakashvili, namely, Ukrainian citizen Siverion Dangadze, in agreement with Saakashvili himself, approached Sergei Kurchenko through a proxy with a proposal to finance Saakashvili’s activities in exchange for lobbying the interests of members of an organized crime group. We have recorded the receipt from the Russian side by Saakashvili’s entourage of about half a million US dollars, approximately half of which was handed over to Siverion Dangadze under the control of the Ukrainian special services,” Lutsenko said.
