Solskyi was accused of illegally seizing land worth more than $7m (£5.6m) when he was the head of a major farming company and a member of parliament.

An anti-corruption court ordered him to be held in custody until 24 June, prosecutors said. Bail was set at 75.7m hryvnias ($1.9m).

    That’s why this war started in the first place - the people voted for political outsiders who wanted to move closer to Europe, in favour of the old corrupt Russian-friendly elites. Putin was not thrilled that his puppets lost power.

      Wishing Ukraine a good ( spring ) cleanup, though it’s a hard & difficult job to do. And as long as they don’t forget to throw the garbage out, it will be nice and shiny once again.
