Yanukovych says he left Ukraine with 'hand baggage', has not a cent in accounts in world banks
Former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych (2010-2014) said he has no funds in accounts in foreign banks and that he had taken only his personal belongings in hand baggage out of Ukraine.
"As for some fantastic money they wrote about a lot, there is not a cent of my money in any bank in the world to date. I have never had and have no accounts," Yanukovych said at a press conference in Russia's Rostov-on-Don on Friday evening.
He also said that he had never taken money and valuables out of Ukraine. "I never took out anything, except for my personal belongings in hand baggage," Yanukovych said.
In addition, the ex-president confirmed the death of his youngest son, Viktor. "I have heard plenty of insults in that period of time, I would have to say, even slander, lies, open and most diverse, cynical; for example, when it concerned death of my youngest son," Yanukovych said.
