"Yulia Tymoshenko, who earlier held the post of Ukraine's prime minister, is accused of illegally issuing the prime minister's order to convert into the national currency the funds received under the Kyoto Protocol, in the amount of EUR 180 million, retaining a commission of UAH 960,309.64 and sending these funds to replenish a single treasury account from which all of the budget's expenditures are financed," the press service reported.The timing is perfect, its always good to take care of an opponent during the holidays when people are busy on other things. According to the PGO, the prime minister used the funds to cover budget expenditures and is apparently under house arrest.
The Prosecutor General's Office noted that these funds should have been accumulated on special currency accounts until the need arose to use them for environmental purposes in accordance with the budgetary legislation.
"Due to the abovementioned criminal actions by Yulia Tymoshenko, nearly UAH 1 million worth of damage was caused to the state budget," the press service said.
