The scandal surrounding the business of Viceremier - Minister of National Unity Alexei Chernyshov is gaining momentum. According to the journalists of the Mirror of the Week, the country's management resorts to unofficial negotiations with the Minister himself in order to withdraw him from a critical situation with the least loss - both for him and for the Presidential Administration.
According to the publication with reference to sources in OP, Chernyshov is directed by the businessman Timur Mindich - the ancient partner of Vladimir Zelensky and the co -owner of the Studio "Quarter 95". It is Mindic who must convince the minister urgently to return to Ukraine within the time limited by the President, which Volodymyr Zelenskyy voiced the day before at a briefing.
In exchange for loyalty, Chernyshov promises to "transfer" his case to another investigative body - probably under the control of the bank. This, according to journalists, can be done according to the "Tatarov scheme" - a well -known procedure for changing the jurisdiction of the case from NABU to other bodies, where the level of control by the office of the President is much higher.
People's Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak stated that he has information about the preparation of the presentation of Chernyshov's suspicion. According to him, the corresponding call was already transferred to the Cabinet Secretariat, and the delivery should take place on June 23. However, the minister is still abroad.
On June 13, NABU and SAP reported a large -scale corruption scheme in the field of construction, where high -ranking officials appear. The losses of the state, according to preliminary estimates, may exceed one billion hryvnias.
According to journalist Mikhail Tkach, two people from Chernyshov's close environment were detained in the case: the former Secretary of State of the Minregion Vasyl Volodin and the former adviser to Minister Maxim Gorbatyuk. One of them, according to weaving, was already trying to escape abroad.
Chernyshov himself was already on a business trip at the time of the event, which, according to the official version, is a "planned visit to EU countries." On June 19, he released a post with the President of the European Parliament Robert Matzola on social networks. At the same time, UP sources report that about a month ago searches were already in the home and the minister's office.
According to the Ukrainian Truth, June 19 left the son of Chernyshov, and the next day - his wife. This increased the suspicion that a minister's business trip could be a cover to avoid liability.
Against the backdrop of these events, the attempt to persuade Chernyshov looks like an attempt to maintain the handling process, to prevent international publicity and to minimize reputation losses for the President's office.
