KIEV, Jan. 12 – The decision of the board of the National Bank of Ukraine to put Platinum Bank on the list of insolvent banks could be considered the political bankruptcy of President Petro Poroshenko, according to MP Serhiy Taruta.

"The president could not have been unaware that Gontareva [NBU Governor Valeriya Gontareva] is withdrawing the money via Platinum Bank. Not only me, but all serious economists of the country, Verkhovna Rada deputies and former employees of the NBU dismissed by Gontareva informed about it each day," Taruta said on Wednesday.
