Zelenskiy’s close ties to oligarch Igor Kolomoisky are increasingly clear, Reuters reports in a story headlined: “Mutual friends and borrowed cars: how Ukraine’s would-be leader is linked to the tycoon.” “The two men have business partners in common, Zelenskiy uses security staff also seen in the past accompanying Kolomoisky, a former Kolomoisky adviser is on Zelenskiy’s campaign team and at least two vehicles used by Zelenskiy and his entourage are owned by people or entities linked to Kolomoisky,” Reuters reports from Kyiv. The report notes that Zelenskiy’s recent stardom has been made by Kolomoisky’s 1+1 TV channel.
