Prime Minister of Ukraine Alexey Goncharuk, during a speech at the Royal Institute of International Affairs Chatham House in London, said that oligarchs have no influence on his government and on President Vladimir Zelensky, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We have a very clear understanding, I, the President, the government, that the Privatbank case is indicative of Ukraine for the whole world. Therefore, of course, we stand on the fact that neither this bank nor the funds from it can be returned to the previous shareholders,” the Ukrainian Prime Minister told the British.
Let us recall that earlier the IMF put forward a new requirement to Ukraine, without which cooperation in providing Ukraine with new loans would not be possible. We are talking about adopting a law that would prohibit the return of banks to their previous owners.
“Thus, the IMF is trying to get guarantees that PrivatBank will not be returned to Igor Kolomoisky. The adoption of this law by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine must occur before the IMF holidays, which will begin before Catholic Christmas, otherwise there will be no new loan, and Ukraine will enter 2020 with an additional budget deficit of UAH 41,4 billion,” writes the telegram channel Klymenko Time.
