According to information on the Group DF website and on the TV channel’s website, the agreement took place in July, and the change of management took place this month, writes Zerkalo Nedeli.
The ownership structure of the Inter TV channel now looks like this:
- 61% – Ukrainian Media Project LLC (comparatively Dmitry Firtash and Valery Khoroshkovsky);
- 29% – Group DF Holdings (Dmitry Firtash);
- 10% – Pegasus Television LLC (Svetlana Pluzhnikova).
According to the league. net, the chairman of the board of PJSC Telekanal Inter, Ekaterina Shkuratova, will be replaced in her position by Alexander Pilipets, former director of National Information Systems LLC.
Also, Anna Bezlyudnaya, who was a representative of Ukrainian Media Project LLC, left the channel’s supervisory board. She will continue to collaborate with the company at the Group DF Media level.
It is worth noting that Khoroshkovsky is the former head of the SBU, Minister of Finance and first Deputy Prime Minister during the presidency of Yanukovych. In 2013, he left Ukraine and has since lived in Monaco and the UAE.
One owner of Inter (Firtash) is hiding in Austria from extradition to the United States, and the other (Khoroshkovsky) fled to Monaco.
Since spring, the Inter channel has been in the pool of channels broadcasting and producing the United News telethon, financed from the budget of Ukraine.
