... Russia still found Sergei Kivalov. And two months before the next presidential elections in Ukraine, which will be held on January 17.

Receiving from the hands of Dmitry Medvedev, the Order of Friendship, Mr. Kivalov assured that next year probably will come true desire of ordinary Ukrainians to be together with Russia.

- There is an anecdote. A visitor to Odessa Odessan asked: "Tell me, if I'm right, there will be a railway station?" "He will, even if you do not go there" - entertained the audience Sergey Kivalov. And suddenly ended: - This is how our nation is destined to be together with Russia. http://www.kommersant.ru/doc-y.aspx?DocsID=1268780

(is in NETE)

Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko prepares to leave the country after the election and had already sent the aircraft value in Canada, wrote about this hearing today, 30 September, the newspaper Segodnya. At Bankovoj deny this information.

Family Ukrainian leader once again in the center of the scandal. There were rumors that Yushchenko is packing up and going abroad. But not on an official visit, and for permanent residence after the expected defeat in the elections. As is known, rating the head of state, even the most optimistic for him this does not exceed 4%.

Site ProUA, referring to its sources, claims that in late summer with the Zhitomir airfield in Canada went to a few planes loaded with antiques, all of this happened under the leadership of First Lady Kateryna Yushchenko.

"According to one version, Yushchenko had brought his paintings and shards recently. On the other hand, they have long been in Western banks. It is logical, because after the elections, Yushchenko will have to leave the country. No future presidents not to give him security guarantees" -- said a source in the Party of Regions.

"Complete nonsense. Yushchenko would not go anywhere - defends deputy president, political council member of the pro-presidential Our Ukraine party," Andrew Paruby. - He will always play a prominent role in Ukrainian politics. "

Officially denied this information and a protege of Yushchenko as head of the SBU Valentin Nalyvaychenko. "From the airport take any value or any other goods, especially in Canada, where even worse emigration system, it is impossible. Information on the export values Yushchenko - a lie" - he said.

Skeptical about the rumors true Ministry of Internal Affairs, General Gennady Moskal, which differs revelatory statements in relation to the famous politicians. "I doubt that our plane from Zhitomir to Zhmerinka will fly, not just to Canada." But she said that it would be logical if the guarantor had flown abroad.

But the lawmaker from the opposition "of Regions" Nestor Shufrich even willing to buy the current president and all those who will accompany him into exile, tickets: "If not, then a plane for him zafrahtuyu.

A member of the Zhitomir airport told me that on the plane load for Yushchenko had not heard anything, and departures from them are extremely rare.

In the collection of Yushchenko, which he keeps at his dacha in the New Bezradichi - objects Ukrainian folk life, folk costumes, trypilska culture, and ancient icons. There he and unusual sculptures made of wood: St. Peter without hands, and John the Baptist with a severed head.

Interesting things happen to the property of the president abroad. If in 2007, the maintenance of real estate and vehicles abroad guarantor family spent a little more than 60 thousand hryvnia, then in 2008 - more than 120 thousand. This follows from the declarations Yushchenko, placed on his official website.

In addition, increasing the president's family and accounts in foreign banks. If in 2006 the family abroad was about 1.2 million UAH, and in 2007 - just over 1.6 million, then in 2008 was 2 million 420 thousand UAH.

"In Kiev, from time to time Darnitsa going to antique dealers and sell old things. In this market you can find anything - from old to very valuable icons. I once saw a president with a guard, something he chose. It is rumored that a his wife has several antique shops in the U.S., go take out things on airplanes and sell "- says the artist-restorer Alexander.

The press service of the first lady denies that she had any export abroad. "We were surprised by the active dissemination of rumors, which are based on dubious information. We categorically refute these conjectures", - reported the press service of Kateryna Yushchenko. However, in 2006 President's press secretary (then Irina Gerashchenko. - Ed) reported that the Ukrainian president's wife (a native of Chicago, USA) is a property abroad, which it leases. From that has income.

Recently, more and more rumors arise around the presidential family. Resonant case of dioxin poisoning of Yushchenko to give new perspective, the fact that the temporary investigative commission of the Verkhovna Rada on the investigation into the poisoning of the 2004 presidential candidate suspected involvement of Kateryna Yushchenko's alleged falsification of poisoning.

The First Lady of this information to refute, but whether this is true is to check the General Prosecutor's Office. Meanwhile, Yushchenko himself does not give grounds to assert that he plans to leave the country after the elections on 17 January. Moreover, despite the low rating, he is confident of victory.
