A Ukrainian politician’s wife has been caught in Hungary by authorities with $28 million and €1.3 million in cash stashed in suitcases, according to Ukrainian media outlets.

The husband of the woman is former Ukrainian Member of Parliament Igor Kotvitsky. The 52-year-old politician was once one of the wealthiest MPs of the country.

The woman, Anastasia Kotvitska, had taken the cash through a refugee border crossing into the European Union while fleeing the war-torn country.

Probably by the generosity of the Nato countries hard working tax payers, specially the US, we need to pay all this people with our tax dollars to keep them from blackmailing the US president and all those that lauder money in the Ukraine.

Maybe she had an Onlyfans..lol

Seriously though, very sketchy, that a lot of cash to have.

Did she acquire it from a pallet, perhaps recently dropped off by the Biden admin?

There are a lot of people sending all their prayers and positive mojo to Ukraine but don't seem to realize that the place is just Russia Jr. Fraud from top to bottom.

The place is a democracy like Dr pepper is a doctor.

I think Biden should send more money .
He hasn't helped the Ukrainian government as much as his mentor Barry did for the Iranian government .
They are jealous .
And righteously so .

I doubt that she is getting the cash out for just one MP, I bet she has trouble explaining that one.

How did the former president in afganistan flee with millions, a bank somewhere got robbed thanks to their position as they hauled booty.

Doing quick math. A 100 dollar bill has a weight of 1 gram. 28 million dollars is about 6,100 lbs.

No wonder she was caught, was she driving a trailer with 100’s falling out?

Or this is fake news. C’mon man! The thing!

Biggest money laundering scheme in human history. Brought to you by the POTUS. We just sent 13 billion in tax payer assistance over. I would be surprised if 1% makes it to it's intended recipients.

"Quick math"?

That's assuming a dollar actually weighs a gram and assuming she was smuggling 28 million $1 bills.

Fake news?
More like fake maths...

Eta.
23 million in cash would be about 600 lbs.

1000 dollar bills would make it 62 lbs.


Cashiers checks, much lighter.

The article made a distinction between the Euros in cash and the dollar denomination possibly not in cash FWIW

Yeah I fixed it right away, added too many zeros.

How do you think someone is carrying over 6 thousand pounds of currency?

Drops in the bucket compared to the wealth transfer over the past two years.

Okay that makes sense.

Where those suitcases marked with Red Cross badges like the ones the Chechyn groups found in Ukraine I wonder?
We,as in the West support these common criminals.
Playing with fire springs to mind

When that kind of scratch is floating around in the country even normally innocent hands get sticky. Hubby is saying all his money is in Ukrainian Banks, wifey didn't declare it when leaving Ukraine

more from the article

Kotvitsky said his wife had left the country to give birth and denied reports that she was carrying huge amount of money, as per The Times report.

Before closing social media account, Kotvitsky said, “All my money is in Ukrainian banks, I did not take anything out.”

Kotvitska did not declare cash when she left Ukraine at the Vilok border crossing but the money was found at the entry in Hungary, Obozrevatel newspaper reported. She then declared that she brought the money into Hungary.

The development has raised several eyebrows and triggered angry reactions.

The Marcos's raided the Philippine treasury when they left, left with billions on a 13,500 dollar salary.

And yet you still claim it would be over 6 thousand pounds of currency?
