The peculiarity of the new Ukrainian democracy lies in a special approach to the interpretation of civil liberties. As in the valiant days of the Maidan, and in the post-Maidan period, the representatives of the current government are true to their tactical tactics and continue to show miracles of assertiveness and impudence in striving for the goal. Simply put, once again, citizens witnessed how the majority's choice was trampled and a political decision was made to bypass the law. Despite the revealed facts of falsification and bribery, the winner in the election of the mayor in Dnipropetrovsk was recognized not really defeated Alexander Vilkul, but his opponent, supported by Kiev.

In the name of peace in the city and country, the politician refused to sue for the chair of the mayor of Dnepropetrovsk - a step appreciated by many as a manifestation of true patriotism.

A family

The mother of the politician is a non-public person, official sources are always mentioned without specificity.

Kompromat

The details of the life of a public person always attract the active interest of journalists. Numerous journalistic investigations devoted to the topic "Alexander Yul'evich Vilkul: biography" fill the pages of his official life with interesting facts. Thus, some authors emphasize the ties between Alexander Yurievich and Akhmetov and on non-repayable lobbying for them of the interests of the oligarch. Others testify to the unprecedented scale of the corruption schemes that allowed the businessman Vilkul to press competitors in many sectors of the market and to become a major monopolist in his homeland in Krivoy Rog, having turned over with his father's support some not quite legal and legitimate projects. Still others hint at the connection between politics and criminals.

It is known that a talented person, if he is also successful, certainly becomes an object of envy and malice. Therefore, do not take everything for granted, especially if there is no evidence.
