Banker Sergei Fursa believes that due to US sanctions, the People’s Deputy of the “Servant of the People” Alexander Dubinsky may lose his Facebook account.
Due to the individual sanctions that the United States imposed against the People’s Deputy of the “Servant of the People” Alexander Dubinsky, he will not be able to open even an account in hryvnia in a Ukrainian bank. Investment banker Sergei Fursa said this in a comment to Bukvam.
“The personal sanctions against Dubinsky mean that the Americans called him a Russian agent who tried to influence their elections. And now Dubinsky will not even be able to open an account in hryvnia, not even in a Ukrainian bank,” said Sergei Fursa.
He also believes that Dubinsky’s account can be removed from the Facebook social network.
On January 11, the United States placed 11 individuals and organizations on the sanctions list in Ukraine. Seven citizens of Ukraine fell under the sanctions, notably former prosecutor of the Attorney General of Ukraine Konstantin Kulik, a fugitive businessman, former People’s MP Oleksandr Onishchenko, Dubinsky, and a former Ukrainian diplomat and political scientist Andrei Telizhenko.
According to the US Department of the Treasury, these individuals are associated with Ukraine’s People’s Deputy Andrey Derkach, against whom the United States imposed sanctions in September 2020 “for trying to influence the 2020 US presidential elections.” Along with Derkach, sanctions were imposed against three more Russians: Artem Lifshits, Anton Andreev and Daria Aslanova, employees of the Russian Internet Research Agency (better known as the “Troll Factory”).
Dubinsky himself denies that, together with Derkach, he tried to influence the 2020 US presidential election.
In May, June, July and September, Derkach published three installments of recordings of alleged telephone conversations by the fifth Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, which he conducted in 2015-2016 with various politicians. In particular, alleged recordings of conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin and now-elected US President Joe Biden were released.
In the recordings, people with voices similar to Poroshenko and Biden, in particular, discussed the resignation of then-Attorney General Viktor Shokin and Kiev’s receipt of US loan guarantees in the amount of $ 1 billion. Derkach believes that Biden could have put pressure on the Ukrainian leadership.
In the United States, on November 3, 2020, the main vote in the presidential elections took place. More than 10 candidates ran for the job, the main competitors were the Republican, the incumbent of the White House Donald Trump and the Democrat Joe Biden.
On January 7, the United States Congress confirmed Joe Biden as the winner of the presidential election. He received 306 electoral votes, Trump – 232. The inauguration of the new president of the United States is scheduled for January 20.
