The company collects UAH 1 as a charitable contribution for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the "Kyiv School of Economics" charitable fund.
Yuzhanina emphasized that the founder of the charity fund is Tymofiya Mylovanov of the Kyiv School of Economics, who is also the chairman of its board. The parliamentarian also threatened Smilyanskyi with law enforcement officers and said that they should evaluate his actions for legality.
