An interesting way to communicate with the investigation was chosen by the ex-president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, who is accused of treason. He arrives at the State Bureau of Investigation for a few minutes, officially refuses to testify and leaves back. And the law does not seem to be violated – the accused arrived for interrogation. And there is no evidence – he has the right, according to the law, not to testify against himself. Such is the game of “cat and mouse”, which has been going on for the second week.
On Monday, January 31, Petro Poroshenko repeated an already tried trick – in the morning he arrived for interrogation at the State Bureau of Investigation, but refused to give evidence in the so-called “coal case”. “We categorically refuse to take part in this. As a law-abiding citizen, I will come to the investigation, but I will not participate in this show,” said Petro Poroshenko, who is ready to participate only in a show of his own production called “political opponent persecuted by the authorities” .
He arrives at the State Bureau of Investigation accompanied by journalists, whom he immediately gives interviews on the spot, telling how he is being unfairly persecuted. This time, according to Poroshenko, he was taken away from a very important matter. At the Conciliation Council of factions, he intended to take the initiative to raise the salaries of the military to 25,000, and those who are at the front to 50,000.
However, since Poroshenko stayed in the State Bureau of Investigation building for no more than ten minutes, he will still have time to promote himself by raising the salaries of the military. Meanwhile, the State Bureau of Investigation reported that Poroshenko not only refused to testify, but also did not sign the protocol on his refusal to testify. In general, he went into a “deaf defense”.
Recall that before that, Poroshenko came to the State Bureau of Investigation a week ago – on January 24, but also quickly left the building. Allegedly did not wait for the investigator. By the way, Poroshenko intends to sue the SBI for “political persecution.” And, apparently, the ex-president feels quite confident. Each of his visits to the investigators is a “plus” to his rating, and a “minus” to the rating of President Zelensky, who cannot cope with his opponent.
