On August 17, the publication "Ukrainian Truth” (“Ukraiinska Pravda”) published an investigation into the fact that the MP from the banned OPZZH party, Hryhoriy Surkis, his brother Ihor, the MP and capital developer Vadym Stolar, developer from Dnipro, Vadim Yermolaev, and oligarch Konstantin Zhevago (which is wanted in Ukraine) are in Monaco and Nice.

Also on the Cote dʼAzur, the MP from OPZZh, Ihor Abramovich, was spotted — the company of Russian banker, Boris Davletyarov, is registered in the French register at his place of residence. Journalists assume that a Ukrainian deputy can rent a villa from a Russian financier.

On August 17, the SBI opened a case based on the journalistsʼ materials.
