At the same time, the procedure for initiating sanctions is opaque, in particular, the law does not contain clear requirements for filing and providing evidence, which contributes to arbitrariness and speculation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An example is the opaque and selective nature of the sanctions, including the current People&#8217;s Deputy Petro Poroshenko. According to him, the authorities tried to take away the TV channels &#8220;Pryamy&#8221; and &#8220;Pyatiy&#8221; from him under the guise of &#8220;de-oligarchization.&#8221; The People&#8217;s Deputy called these actions a &#8220;Gopnytskyi attempt to seize property.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Despite the patriotic packaging, such cases create a catastrophic effect for Ukraine&#8217;s image in the West,&#8221; notes 24matins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Citing The National Interest and The Hill, the publication notes that the West &#8220;does not trust Ukrainian sanctions,&#8221; because the evidence of their validity remains classified, and the procedure itself is devoid of transparency and judicial verification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, it is emphasized that if military sanctions turn into a tool for settling scores or economic struggle, Ukraine may lose the trust of investors, creditors, and donors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Ukraine is fighting for survival, but in this battle it must not lose its bearings. Sanctions cannot be a substitute for the court. Confiscations cannot turn into raiding. Populism cannot replace the law,&#8221; the French publication summarizes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-vpb-inserted=\" 8zzz8q.uh\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sanctions in Ukraine, which are intended to be a tool for protection against external threats, are turning into a universal method of redistributing property in the interests of groups close to power.
