Election details and Viktor Pinchuk's role

The message, which contains details of the election, emphasises that Mykita Poturaiev obtained this position thanks to the support of oligarch Viktor Pinchuk. According to the authors of the text, Pinchuk was interested in promoting his own person within the OSCE structure.

At the same time, the source claims that Poturaiev's influence, both within the 'Servant of the People' faction and in the Office of the President, is limited. Despite this, it was Viktor Pinchuk's support that became the decisive factor in the deputy's election to the leadership post.

Path to parliament

It is also noted that Mykita Poturaiev entered the electoral list of the 'Servant of the People' party via a Viktor Pinchuk quota. After this, he became a People's Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada.
