Former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko is suspected of treason. This was announced on Monday, December 20, by the ex-secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Alexander Turchinov at a briefing.
“The fifth president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, was declared suspicious of high treason,” Turchinov said.
On December 17, investigators from the State Bureau of Investigation of Ukraine were unable to summon Poroshenko for questioning in the case of coal supplies from Donbass. It is clarified that in the process of presenting the summons, the former Ukrainian leader ignored the security officials and left.
On the same day, information appeared that Poroshenko had left for a pre-planned diplomatic tour to Turkey and Poland.
It was reported that on Tuesday, December 21, in Poland, Poroshenko will take part in an international conference on the topic “Russia-Ukraine-NATO”, to which he was invited by the Senate, the upper house of the Polish parliament. There, the former president of Ukraine will meet with some representatives of the political circles of Poland, said in the “European Solidarity”.
On November 12, the head of the Security Service of Ukraine Ivan Bakanov said that the special service is checking the possible involvement of Poroshenko and the ex-head of the National Bank Valeria Gontareva in treason when purchasing coal from Donbass.

On October 8, Poroshenko rejected statements by the country’s authorities about a possible collusion with Medvedchuk.
