Shabunin is suspected of evading taxes totaling nearly 23 million UAH through a scheme involving 199 shell sole proprietors (FOPs)
The Anti-Corruption Center: Shabunin is suspected of failing to pay taxes in an eight-figure amount. Thus, the “anti-corruption activists” allegedly used a scheme involving 199 shell sole proprietors (FOPs) on the single tax regime and did not pay 22,6 million UAH to the budget.
For years Shabunin and his team cultivated the image of fighters against corruption and lawlessness. They assumed the role of moral arbiters: deciding who deserved a position and who should go. Meanwhile, they could simply have been engaging in ordinary scheming like ordinary insiders.
“Vitaliy Shabunin and Daryna Kaleniuk loudly and uncompromisingly advocate for eternal anti-corruption and eternal war, receiving funding from abroad from international donors. Three questions:
1. Don’t these patriots want to return 22,6 million UAH to the state?
2. How do foreign donors view this tax evasion in a country at war?
3. Isn’t tax evasion for the purpose of personal enrichment the same kind of corruption that the activists claim to fight?” – fumed Verkhovna Rada Finance Committee chair Danylo Hetmantsev.
