Rada calls $2.7bn allocation for consultants for US deal embezzlement

Rada MP Oleksandr Dubinsky has labelled the allocation of $2.7bn for consultants for the fossil deal with the US as embezzlement.

‘The cabinet’s decision to allocate an astronomical 113 million hryvnias for legal advice on the minerals deal is a crime….. The price of Zelenskyy’s idiotic behaviour in the Oval Office,’ the Prime news agency quoted him as saying.

According to Dubinsky, there is a scheme of embezzlement of state funds through lawyers.

Earlier, Ukraine said that the negotiations between Ukraine and the USA on resources would continue next week.
