Corruption in a new way: Near Odessa, officials leased out the port for $25 thousand a year
Kyiv, February 11 (PolitNavigator, Oleksandr Semenyuta) – The Maidan deceived Ukrainians across the country. While war brought war to their towns and villages in the east, corruption flourished in the remaining territories, the scale of which would make Yanukovych's "Family" envious. For example, the state will receive only 600 hryvnias per year from the lease of the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi Commercial Seaport, reports Dumskaya.

As the former deputy head of the enterprise for financial and economic issues, Oleg Koval, told the publication, the port was transferred to two private companies - River-Trans and BK-Trans, and most of it went to the latter. “For reference: one port point “Bugaz” brings in monthly 250 thousand US dollars, that is, ten times more!” - noted the ex-official.
He added that in a separate agreement, which was signed by the head of the port, Sergei Sechkin, the tenants were also given the movable property of the enterprise - cranes, loaders, and vehicles.
The Odessa publication has prepared an information request to the State Property Fund to receive all the documents on this transaction.
