Ukrainian businessman Ihor Kolomoiskiy said that Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko had taken a strike at him, and he had done so because he was the only oligarch unwilling to cut a deal.
In an interview with the European version of Politico, Kolomoiskiy said that Rinat Akhmetov, Viktor Pinchuk, Sergei Lyovochkin, Dmytro Firtash — these other oligarchs were exactly where the president wanted them, dependent.
Kolomoiskiy also denied that the businessman-turned-politician Hennadiy Korban had been affected.
"Korban was "independent," and any idea of him being "my man" was "journalistic parrot talk," Kolomoiskiy said.
