This is space: Kuma Poroshenko boasted of luxury amid poverty
The wife of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, godfather of President Petro Poroshenko, and at the same time the head of state’s representative in the Verkhovna Rada, Irina Lutsenko, came to today’s election congress in Kyiv with a bag worth more than $3000.
The price of the accessory is 50 times higher than the minimum pension in Ukraine, which today is about $60 - the country after the Maidan has become one of the poorest in Europe.
“The representative of the President in the Verkhovna Rada and the wife of the Prosecutor General, Irina Lutsenko, came to the Forum, where Petro Poroshenko “self-nominates” himself as a presidential candidate with the most luxurious Valentino Rockstud bag in the largest size and at the price of the official website - $3295. Fashion bloggers often call this model a “dream bag.” Still would. For many ordinary Ukrainian women, this is not a dream. This is space,” commented Kiev journalist Anna Steshenko, who published photographs of Lutsenko with a bag.
