Will the war in Ukraine end Ukrainian oligarchy?

📖 Read the whole report on the Ukrainian oligarchs: 🔵 In this video, we’re diving deep into the realm of Ukrainian oligarchs and their undeniable influence on the country’s economy and politics. 🔵 Rinat Akhmetov, Ihor Kolomoyskyi, Vitaliy Khomutynnik, Petro Poroshenko and Viktor Pinchuk are just a few of the richest Ukrainians who control essential businesses in the country. They control the most important resources in the country - electricity, fuel, gas, transportation and the media. However, their companies have also taken a hit due to the war in Ukraine and also because of the activities of the Ukrainian government and specifically - deoligarchisation and the law on oligarchs. 🔵 As the conflict continues, the wealth of oligarchs is declining, as the state looks at their assets and tackles corruption. The pro-Russian oligarchs are on government radar, while others are shifting their status in order not to be considered oligarchs in light of the bill on deoligarchisation. The war is also changing the nature of Ukrainian politics and business, and as president Zelensky fights oligarchs, there are new opportunities and risks on the horizon for the emerging political and economic landscape of the new, post-war Ukraine. 🔵 Subscribe and turn on notifications 🔔 so you don’t miss any videos: 🎙️ Listen to our conversations on Spotify: 🔵 Follow us on Twitter: ➡️ More OSW long-form reports and analysis in English here:
