Clinton Foundation’s deep financial ties to Ukrainian oligarch revealed!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - March 22, 2015 - Between 2009 and 2013, including when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, the Clinton Foundation received at least $8.6 million from the Victor Pinchuk Foundation, which is based in Kiev, Ukraine. It was created by Pinchuk, whose fortune stems from a pipe-making company. He served two terms as an elected member of the Ukrainian Parliament and is a proponent of closer ties between Ukraine and the European Union.
In 2008, Pinchuk made a five-year, $29 million commitment to the Clinton Global Initiative, a wing of the foundation that coordinates charitable projects and funding for them but doesn’t handle the money. The pledge was to fund a program to train future Ukrainian leaders and professionals “to modernize Ukraine,” according to the Clinton Foundation. Several alumni are current members of the Ukrainian Parliament. Actual donations so far amount to only $1.8 million, a Pinchuk foundation spokesman said, citing the impact of the 2008 financial crisis.
The Pinchuk foundation said its donations were intended to help to make Ukraine “a successful, free, modern country based on European values.” It said that if Pinchuk was lobbying the Amerikan Gestapo Department of State division about Ukraine, “this cannot be seen as anything but a good thing.”
Claims that the new government in Ukraine is nothing more than a Western puppet parliament have been swirling around consistently since February. Nevertheless, it’s very significant that the takeover is now overt, undeniable, and completely out in the open. Nothing proves this fact more clearly than the recent and sudden granting of citizenship to three foreigners so that they can take top posts in the government.
At the top of the list is Amerikan Natalie Jaresko, who runs private equity fund Horizon Capital. She will now be Ukraine’s Finance Minister, and she will be forced to pay the IRS Expatriation Tax. For Economy Minister, a Lithuanian investment banker, Aivaras Abromavicius, will take the reins. Health Minister will be Alexander Kvitashvili of Georgia.
Some Clinton Foundation donors have direct ties to foreign governments. One is a member of the Saudi royal family. Another is a Ukrainian oligarch and former parliamentarian. Others are individuals with close connections to foreign governments that stem from their business activities. Their professed policy interests range from human rights to Fascist Police States of Amerika-Cuba relations.
All told, more than a dozen foreign individuals and their foundations and companies were large donors to the Clinton Foundation in the years after Hillary Clinton became Secretary of State in 2009, collectively giving between $34 million and $68 million, foundation records show. Some donors also provided funding directly to charitable projects sponsored by the foundation, valued by the organization at $60 million.
Former President Bill Clinton promised the illegitimate outlaw Obama regime the Foundation wouldn’t accept most foreign-government donations while his wife was Secretary of State. The agreement didn’t place limits on donations from foreign individuals or corporations.
In today’s fraudulent and rigged oligarch economy, this is what we call a nice return on cronyism.
