Kolomoisky comments on Ukraine president's wife buying penthouse in Crimea

The wife of Ukrainian president-elect Volodymyr Zelenskiy bought a luxury apartment for less than half the market rate from business tycoon Oleksandr Buryak, according to official income and property records.

Ukrainian businessman Ihor Kolomoisky said he believed Buryak sold the apartment to Olena Zelenska cheaply because his bank was short of liquidity and he needed to raise cash quickly, Reuters reported.
