For example, Harutyunyants earned over half a million hryvnias in 2024, and a little over 100 thousand hryvnias in 2025. In contrast, his colleague earned almost 2.5 million hryvnias last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe Tymoshchuk case clearly shows the gap between official incomes and the real lifestyle of potential millionaire Telegram owners,\u201d the deputy emphasized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the fact that the owner of the public did not earn more than 130 thousand per year until 2021, he still purchased a BMW X6 and a house in Irpen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zheleznyak also managed to identify the owner of \u201cInsider,\u201d who turned out to be Andriy Sakharov. According to the registers, he owns four apartments \u2014 two each in Irpen and Sofiivska Borshchagovka, and two luxury cars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the full-scale Russian invasion, Sakharov&#8217;s income increased almost 40 times. Last year, he declared almost 9 million hryvnias as an individual entrepreneur.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, according to sources, Sakharov is the owner of the Insider Help charitable foundation, through which more than 13 million hryvnias passed in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The public &#8220;Ukraine Now&#8221; belongs to Vyacheslav Mishalov, who owns a number of real estate companies, including in Cyprus. As Zheleznyak found out, even after 2022, he spends a lot of time abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Telegram channel \u201cReal War\u201d is owned by Vadym Klymovets. Almost all of his real estate and companies are registered in Lutsk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He also traveled abroad despite being of draft age \u2014 Zheleznyak claims that Klymovets flew to Barcelona.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since 2022, his income began to grow sharply. In 2022, he received almost 300 thousand hryvnias, and the next year, more than 6 times more, about 2 million hryvnias.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zheleznyak notes that these publics actively attacked anti-corruption agencies and defended corrupt officials. The cost of a post on them ranges from 2 to 4 thousand dollars. However, none of the owners of the listed channels has large official fortunes or property.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> Let us remind you that <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/anonimni-telehram-kanaly-systemno-polyvaiut-brudom-poroshenka-veducha-yak-ne-staty-ovochem-oksana-moroz\/\">anonymous Telegram channels of millionaires systematically pour mud on the leader of &#8220;Eurosolidarity&#8221;<\/a> , the fifth President Petro Poroshenko.<\/p>\n<p> By the way, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/naybilshe-nehatyvu-cherez-telehram-kanaly-poshyriuiut-proty-klychka-i-poroshenka-doslidzhennia-liga-tech\/\">most of the negativity is spread through Telegram channels against Klitschko and Poroshenko<\/a> .<\/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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak named the owners of five large anonymous Telegram channels that carry out government tasks.
