Ukrainian company denies link to alleged arms smuggling to Syria:
Will this story have legs?
p.s. Ukraine is currently having a torrid time, e.g. here, in the German media...
p.p.s. I have suggested in previous blogs that the prosecutor-general's office's attempt to stick the murder of Yevhen Shcherban onto Yulia Tymoshenko could reopen a Pandora's box.
Brave investigative journalist Tetyana Chornovil today posted the first part of her investigation "Vendetta: who killed Shcherban?" on the censor.net site.
Rinat Akhmetov has tried in the past to shut her up in the English courts.
As I have written previously: "in the murky mid nineteen nineties, after the fall of the Soviet Union, many dozens of prominent businessmen were murdered in the Donetsk oblast in a bloody carve up of local assets and property. Those who emerged triumphant dominate business and politics in Ukraine to this day." Chornovil's article provides details.
