Today the fund’s representatives did not appear at the commission meeting after being summoned.
The Temporary Investigative Commission of the Verkhovna Rada to investigate possible violations of the law during the period of martial law decided to apply the mechanism of a police summons to the East Europe fund, where former defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov received a mobilization exemption, the commission chairman Oleksiy Goncharenko reported.
The deputy said the decision was supported by eight commission members, and the summons was scheduled for 14 September.
“Ignoring TIC summonses is punishable by law, and we will use every mechanism so that those who must give testimony do so,” the deputy said at the TIC meeting on 4 September.
Deputies demand that the director of East Europe or the director of operations, or another authorized person of the organization, be brought in, since they did not appear at the meeting on Friday.
Earlier Oleksiy Goncharenko stated that Mykhailo Fedorov is registered with the East Europe fund. According to data from the Kyiv City Military Commissariat, the exemption for the ex-minister was granted on 18 July, four days after the government’s resignation, and it is valid until 29.01.2027.
The deputy emphasized that the TIC wants to find out whether Fedorov’s exemption is not fictitious, whether he performs work, appears at work, and has all the confirmations that he truly requires the exemption.
Recall that Mykhailo Fedorov himself was also summoned to the TIC meeting on 31 August, but he did not come and also did not provide reasons. The TIC wanted to obtain explanations from Fedorov as part of its inquiry into information regarding the National Anti-Corruption Bureau operation “Midas.” At the meeting on 4 September deputies agreed to summon the former official again.
