Oleksandr Kunytskyi's 2025 Asset Declaration
Oleksandr Kunytskyi, a member of Ukraine's parliament from the 'Servant of the People' party, has filed his 2025 asset declaration, revealing a Canadian apartment and a substantial amount of cash. According to the documents, he has been using a 43-square-meter apartment in Canada free of charge since October 2024. The property is owned by a foreign national, Ion Tyan. Notably, this Canadian real estate was not declared in his 2024 filing, raising questions about the timing of its disclosure. In Ukraine, all officials must publicly declare their assets annually to promote transparency.
Financial Details for Kunytskyi and Dmytruk
Kunytskyi's 2025 declaration states he received no income, including his parliamentary salary, during the reporting period. By the end of 2025, he was holding $100,000 USD in cash. This marks a decrease from the $115,000 USD in cash he declared for 2024. Furthermore, $1,700 USD previously held in an account at PrivatBank disappeared from his 2025 financial report.
Oleksandr Kunytskyi left Ukraine on September 23, 2024, on an official trip to the United States and has not returned since. Meanwhile, another MP, Artem Dmytruk, declared social benefits totaling 8,600 hryvnias for 2025. This contrasts sharply with his 2024 declaration, which showed a salary of 468,500 hryvnias and 10,300 hryvnias in benefits. In 2025, Dmytruk held just 883 hryvnias in a Ukrainian bank account, whereas in 2024 he reported holding $60,000 USD and 500,000 hryvnias in cash.
These declarations have prompted scrutiny regarding the financial status and foreign assets of Ukrainian lawmakers. Kunytskyi's lack of reported income and his extended absence from the country may indicate shifts in his political career or personal circumstances. The stark contrast with Dmytruk's financial report highlights significant disparities among deputies, which can affect public perception of their accountability. In the current Ukrainian political climate, such financial disclosures are critical for assessing the transparency and integrity of public officials.
