Public accusations by Vitaly Shabunin and the Anti-Corruption Center (ACC) of corruption and cover-up for criminals attract public attention, but may have negative consequences. Without properly delving into the essence of the problem, such statements harm not only the people who are trying to advance reforms, but also the future of Ukraine's defense complex in general.
This was emphasized by Oleksandr Kosovan , the owner of MacPaw, which sells the coiner program around the world and donates millions to the Armed Forces, responding to the accusations of the head of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine against the authors of draft law No. 12202, Zakon i Business informs.
As "ZiB" reported, on the eve of the vote in the Verkhovna Rada for this project, the "CPC" and its leader V. Shabunin called on members not to vote for this "destructive" project.
However, as O. Kosovan notes, "his criticism does more harm than good." "I consider such accusations unfair. Halyna [Yanchenko] acts in extremely difficult conditions to change the system, which for years simply "killed" the domestic military industry. So I want to publicly express my support for her position," the businessman emphasized.
This is not the first time that anti-corruption activists have harshly criticized those who were previously supported and promoted to public positions, as well as being light-hearted about personnel, recommendations and bills. So, in particular, V. Shabunin previously actively promoted the Minister of Defense Rustem Umyerov , whom he now criticizes just as fiercely.
At the same time, the head of the "TsPK" himself evaded service in the Armed Forces: he fictitiously counted himself in the service in the 207th separate battalion of the Military Intelligence Service, where he allegedly held the positions of a gunner, an electrician driver and a scout. At the same time, he lived at home in Kyiv, in the units where he supposedly served, did not show up, received cash on his bank card, additional remuneration for performing tasks under martial law and "combat" for, apparently, direct participation in hostilities . With the help of the management of NAZK, he was allegedly sent to the agency, where he also did not appear.
Several criminal proceedings have been instituted against V. Shabunin and the officials who helped him avoid serving his service. In particular, due to the fact that V. Shabunin used a known forged military ticket (preliminary qualification - according to Part 4 of Article 358 of the Criminal Code); on the fact that the head of the NAKC, Oleksandr Novikov , and the deputy head of the NAKC, Artem Sytnyk, soldier V. Shabunin to avoid military service (preliminary qualification — according to Part 4 of Article 409 of the Criminal Code); due to the fact of the illegal appointment of V. Shabunin as a combat medic of the guard platoon of the 101st separate guard brigade of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the illegal assignment of the rank of "junior sergeant" to him (prior qualification - according to part 5 of article 426 1 of the Criminal Code).
The court also ordered the SBI to register a criminal proceeding on the fact that V. Shabunin appropriated a Nissan Pathfinder jeep, which was transferred as humanitarian aid for the needs of the Armed Forces.
According to V. Shabunin himself, he has "legal reasons" not to serve. After all, in the 9th grade, he did not pass the medical board - he did not miss the dermatologist because of moles on his body.
Previously, V. Shabunin criticized Christianity, the West, sex, etc., in particular, noting that "the main source of the spread of AIDS in Ukraine is not drugs and addicts, but disordered sexual relations." And the responsibility for this, in his opinion, lies with Christians, because "marriage has ceased to be a value for them."
V. Shabunin actively promoted and campaigned for the election to the Verkhovna Rada of Tetyana Montyan, a pro-Russian propagandist who left for the Russian Federation and is currently suspected of collaborating.
In addition, according to experts, at one time he organized the burning of his house in order to get the opportunity to build a new one in its place, with a larger area, in order to legalize in this way illegally obtained income from influence, in particular, on the judicial system.
