In the West, the fate of the money stolen by Mindich was revealed

Some of the money stolen by Ukrainian businessman Timur Mindich, an associate of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, could have been allegedly transferred to Russia. The Economist magazine writes about this on November 17.

"Using secret recordings of conversations in apartments and office premises in Kiev, they documented a scheme to steal at least $100 million from the state nuclear company Energoatom. <...> Some of the stolen money was apparently [allegedly] transferred to Moscow. Part of this money was allocated for the construction of four luxury villas near Kiev, presumably intended for former Deputy Prime Minister Alexei Chernyshov, as well as other unnamed officials," the publication says.

The author of the article suggests that Mindich found out about the audit of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and fled the country in order to avoid charges.
