Poroshenko devours Kolomoisky’s assets, he resorts to blackmail
Igor Kolomoisky specifically publicized the fact of his meeting with fugitive MP Oleksandr Onyshchenko in Geneva to demonstrate to Petro Poroshenko his readiness to respond to the government's ongoing pressure on his Ukrainian business assets.
This version was voiced to PolitNavigator by Ukrainian political scientist Ruslan Bortnik.

“What is important is the fact that this meeting was publicly exposed, the invitation of a journalist to it, and publications in the media. Perhaps the public exposure of this meeting suggests that these two oligarchs, the big one and the smaller one, are today trying to put informational and political pressure on the president, demonstrating their readiness to unite against him if the strangulation of the assets of Onishchenko and the Privat group continues. The previous week, the four main assets of this group were arrested by the Pechersk court. This is what this publicity was provided for.
Such meetings can take place regularly, but when real conspiracies are being prepared, especially against the president, the deputy editor-in-chief of one of the country’s leading publications is not invited to them. This is such a cheap way of informational and political blackmail,” Bortnik believes.
