EXCLUSIVE
The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption has launched a full verification of the 2023 declaration of Ukrainian MP Andriy Viktorovych Zhupanin. This was announced by the NAPC in response to an enquiry by the Kommersant Ukrainian 
.
“Tour” in London
Andriy Zhupanin, an MP from the Servant of the People party, has found himself at the centre of a scandal because of his regular trips to London during the full-scale war in Ukraine. A journalistic investigation by Bihus.Info revealed that the MP visits the British capital quite often, where he often spends time with his wife and lives in elite apartmentsworth more than 5,000 pounds per month.
It was emphasised that Zhupanin regularly visits London despite Ukraine’s ban on MPs leaving the country on non-government business, introduced by the National Security and Defence Council in January 2023 .
Compensation for rent
Andriy Zhupanin, according to his income declaration, rents a flat in Kiev for 240 thousand UAH per year. These funds he is compensated by the state.
At the same time, Zhupanin’s wife has her own flat in Kiev since 2018, which the politician also notes in his declaration.
Luxury life
In addition to the above-mentioned frequent visits to London, the public’s attention was also drawn to the luxurious lifestyle of Zhupanin’s family, which strikingly contrasts with his officially declared income. The wife of the MP Bogdan, regularly demonstrates in social networks expensive jewellery, clothes from luxury brands and holidays in prestigious places.
Among the luxury items spotted in the photos of Bogdana – a necklace from Van Cleef worth at least 10-12 thousand euros, earrings Bottega Veneta for more than 1000 dollars, down jacket Gucci for several tens of thousands of hryvnias. In addition, the MP’s wife has a collection of branded glasses and bags from Dior, Prada, Burberry and the like.
According to Zhupanin’s official declaration, his personal fortune is relatively small – about 40 thousand hryvnias and 70 thousand dollars of savings. But on his wife, who, according to the declaration of the MP, does not work anywhere, recorded significant amounts of cash: 1.5 million hryvnia, 130 thousand pounds sterling, 195 thousand euros and 182 thousand dollars.
We shall remind you that the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (NAPC) has previously identified inaccurate data in MP Zhupanin’s declaration.
