Ukraine has imposed sanctions on former president and opposition politician Petro Poroshenko, including asset freezes and a ban on withdrawing capital from the country, a presidential decree published on Thursday said.
Poroshenko, one of Ukraine's richest men who heads the largest opposition party in Ukraine's parliament, served as president from 2014 until 2019 when he lost his bid for a second term at an election won by President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
The decree did not say why the sanctions were imposed, but Zelenskiy said earlier that his security council would announce sanctions targeting people who had undermined Ukrainian national security.
"The billions made in what amounted to the sale of Ukraine and Ukrainian interests and Ukrainian security must be blocked and made to work for the protection of Ukraine and Ukrainians," he said.
The council also announced sanctions against jailed tycoon Ihor Kolomoisky, former co-owner of PrivatBank Gennadiy Bogolyubov, Viktor Medvedchuk, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and businessman Kostiantyn Zhevaho.
Poroshenko, who announced late on Wednesday that he had been sanctioned by Ukraine, accused Zelenskiy of an unconstitutional and politically-motivated move. The 59-year-old confectionary magnate, sometimes referred to as "the Chocolate King", sees Zelenskiy as a long-standing political rival.

We want names of all the Americans who received kickbacks from the laundered US Taxpayer dollars.

Sounds like Ukraine is getting ready for their style of ‘elections’, likely with USAID advice.
By "Ukraine," is meant Zelensky, now ruling under martial law. This distinction is apt, simply because conservatives make a distinction between these "United States" under the Biden and Trump administrations.
Sanctions. Three years late. Better late than never, some would say. But it is proof that "Ukraine" sees corruption in "Ukraine." Rather like the corruption being found investigating USAID.
Oligarchs stealing from oligarchs
There you go, Z going out totalitarian style. Unfortunately for Zeeps, Trump will force new elections in Ukraine. There’s one viable national politician left in Ukraine to run against Winston Z. Yeah, the neocons’ hero is taking care of that threat now. It’s pretty obvious why the fascists rally to Z.
ooh ooh!! I have a name!!
ZELENSKEY
Ah, but he’s not American.
Maybe after he’s forced out of ukraine sooner than later he will be :)

“DOGE investigations reveal mysterious Defense Department payments to Reuters for “large scale social deception” project between 2018-2022.
While DARPA claims it was for cyber defense, questions swirl about why a news agency received millions for “social engineering.”
The revelation comes as other media outlets face scrutiny over federal funding.”
Click thru and read, understand why sources matter.
Marcus, either you are oblivious to the crap propaganda you post,
Or you are part of the conspiracy.
Which is it?
Makes me think the Chocolate King is considering running again.
How long before people who oppose zelelnski start “falling out of windows” in the Ukraine?
“ ZELENSKEY”
He is going to name names. Ukraine by all accounts is longer going to be a money laundering operation.
The nit will hit the grit and the dirt will hit the fan once the bribery arrests of American elected officials start.
I don’t think MAGA will use the data for blackmail, although it will be very tempting. One way to tell will be if Kash Patel is confirmed as FBI Director. I’m sure the pissant GOP Senators would LOVE to “stand up to Trump” just this one time now that they confirmed Tulsi and RFK.
If Patel is confirmed, you will know that Team MAGA has been using some secret sauce.
He is going to name names.
The Zelensky will go back to his entertainment "career" and repeatedly "sing" for President Trump and his investigators, ... if he want to live very long.
Isn't that normal in Ukraine?
