KYIV, June 3 – President Volodymyr Zelensky intends to veto the law adopted by the Verkhovna Rada on June 3 on the resumption of punishment in the form of imprisonment for inaccurate declaration (bill No. 4651), the President's Office reported.
"I will not allow the destruction or weakening of the electronic declaration of officials' assets. The signing of the law in the form voted in the Verkhovna Rada is impossible. This is not what the Ukrainians expect, and not what I promised them by submitting this bill to parliament. We must establish a proportional and fair punishment for offenses related to submitting declarations," the head of state emphasized.
