Poroshenko's TV channel has removed a video that allegedly showed evidence of his business operations and tax payments in occupied Crimea, according to media reports.

The "5 Channel," owned by the people's deputy and fifth president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, has removed a video from its website featuring Konstantin Kartoshkin, the head of the Sevastopol Marine Plant, from 2014. In the video, he stated that Sevastopol has an ambiguous and unclear status and discussed the orders from Russia that the plant was anticipating, as the enterprise is focused on exports. This information was reported in the article "Law and Business."
Телеканал Порошенко снял видео с доказательствами его бизнеса и налоговых платежей в оккупированном Крыму, сообщают СМИ.

The publication reported that journalists discovered a video in the archives and released the link to it.

The authors of the piece claim that after the annexation of Crimea, "Sevmorzavod" corresponded with the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation. In the correspondence, Kartoshkin referred to Sevastopol as a "Russian city of federal significance," providing Russian authorities with financial and economic reports from the enterprise.

Later, according to the publication, Poroshenko appointed Kartoshkin as the head of one of the largest state military factories – "Zorya-Mashproekt".

"This effectively serves as one of the pieces of evidence of Poroshenko's collaboration with the Russian authorities, as they did not nationalize his factory for a long time, even though many other Ukrainian companies were nationalized immediately," emphasized "Zakon i biznes".
