As noted, Tymoshenko explained the income as “compensation for the harm caused by the political repressions of 2011-2014 received in the USA at the stage of pre-trial settlement."
It is indicated that this compensation was paid to her by Reid, Collins, Tsai LLP, a company registered in Austin, Texas.
The politician wrote on her Facebook that “the other day I received monetary compensation for the damage caused by the political repressions of 2011-2014.”
“This suggests that the United States is truly a state of law, and human rights are not an empty phrase for them, but a true value,” Tymoshenko said.
According to her, it was possible to "achieve justice in this matter."
“And this is further evidence that the prison in 2011-2014 was a political execution over me,” she said.
As the publication clarifies, in the previous declaration Tymoshenko indicated income received in the form of a salary.
In 2011, Tymoshenko was sentenced to seven years in prison in a case of abuse of office when signing a gas contract with Russia in 2009.
