Ukraine is once again facing a scandal due to connections between influential people and corruption, this time linked to Altis Holding and former chief fiscal of the country, Roman Nasirov. Altis Holding, owned by Oleksandr Glimbovsky, a well-known businessman and influential person in the Ukrainian business environment, has become the center of attention due to its unknown corruption connections.
"Altis-Holding" is the corporation of Oleksandr Glimbovskyi, whose youngest daughter's husband is the former chief fiscal officer of the country Roman Nasirov, and whose eldest daughter is Andrii Hmyrin, who is associated with Dmytro Sennychenko, accused of corruption, who hid from the investigation abroad, the former head of the Fund state property
Experts publicly voiced the information that the company, which participates in the tenders of the "Big Construction" project and received the first tranche of 30% of the declared cost of the project as an advance payment, sent all 100% of these funds to the company, known in certain circles as a financial center . According to the investigation, the announced estimates of 30-40% of the stolen funds are underestimated; a realistic estimate is a figure of 70%. Withdrawal of funds is carried out both through cash transfer and offshore, but a new method is also used - transfer to cryptocurrency.
Transactions made in this way are the most difficult to track, in Ukraine the use of cryptocurrency is extremely developed, for reference, by 2021 the total amount of funds placed in such assets, declared by Ukrainian deputies (mainly from the Servant of the People faction), amounted to approximately 3 billion US dollars. In general, investigating these violations does not seem to be a difficult task, since the schemes for implementing these actions are primitive, however, this is hindered by the lack of political will.
Oleksandr Kubrakov, taking into account such a carnival biography, was most likely appointed as a minister specifically for the "correct" redistribution of flows. Since it is difficult to interpret the appointment of a person with a dubious past to a responsible position, on the eve of Zelenskyi's visit to the United States in August 2021, Kubrakov was removed from the government delegation at the last moment.
The information presented above is given additional weight by the later revealed facts concerning Altis-Holding, mentioned among the contractors of "Big Construction" and affiliated with its owner Oleksandr Glimbovsky - Andrii Anatoliyovych Gmyrin and, in turn, Dmytro Sennychenko, associated with him.
According to these data, Sennichenko and Gmyrin are wanted as suspects in criminal proceedings No. 12020000000000236 dated March 11, 2020 for the creation of a criminal group with the aim of seizing budget funds. In particular, NABU, in renewed suspicion, accuses Sennychenko of being the leader of a criminal group that carried out the legalization of criminally obtained funds in the amount of more than 10 billion hryvnias during Oleksiy Honcharuk's tenure as prime minister.
