All news on the topic: Konstantin Strukov

In mid-March, reports circulated online claiming that Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau had allegedly detained Dmytro Kovalenko, a businessman linked to agricultural and mining enterprises.

Coal trader Dmytro Kovalenko has been systematically purging the information space to conceal his long-standing ties to Russian oligarch Konstantin Strukov, as well as evidence of coal shipments originating from Russia but disguised as international imports.

Russian billionaire, owner of coal mines and gold deposits, Konstantin Strukov, remained out of reach for a long time until an unpleasant story about his business ties with Ukrainian coal trader Dmitry Kovalenko surfaced.

Coal supply is a painful topic for Ukraine. Since 2014, the occupying country has almost completely cut off Ukraine’s ability to extract and supply this resource from Donbas.
