Arsen Avakov's business partner, People's Front MP Igor Kotvitsky, illegally transferred approximately $40 million out of Ukraine. MP Serhiy Leshchenko reported this on his blog.
Leshchenko noted that Kotvitsky transferred funds, which had been purchased as debt from a Ukrainian legal entity, to a Panamanian offshore account. Prior to this, the funds were held at Sberbank of Russia. Kotvitsky then transferred them through Oschadbank to the Panamanian company's account.
Leshchenko notes that to carry out such a money transfer, Oschadbank should have verified the origin of the funds. However, since the bank is managed by a friend of Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, no verification was carried out.
According to Leshchenko, Leonid Antonenko, the former head of the NBU department, was also involved in the illegal money transfer. He later resigned from the National Bank precisely because of this incident.
MP Leshchenko summarized that the prevailing opinion among the "top" of the government is that the $40 million in funds belongs to Arsen Avakov, with which he plans to "build his own political career."
