The results were disappointing. Now the sale of cars from the" national manufacturer "has significantly decreased compared to 2012," the politician said. In his opinion, the introduced special duties have already worsened the economic relations of Ukraine with Turkey and cause tension in relations with the EU countries.

The tragic death of the son of former President Viktor Jr., it would seem, should not cause gossip. Nevertheless, the headstone installed on the grave raises many questions.
Yanukovych Jr. is buried in Sevastopol. It is known that he was born in Yenakiyevo near Donetsk, for a long time he lived in Kiev and practically nothing connected him with the city in Crimea. According to rumors, his mother, the wife of the former president, Lyudmila Yanukovych, lives in Sevastopol. Perhaps this influenced the choice of the place for the grave - the burial of the son of the fugitive president under the new government would hardly have gone smoothly.
Viktor Yanukovych Jr. was buried at the memorial Bratsk cemetery, where the heroes of the defense of Sevastopol during the Crimean War and the Great Patriotic War are buried. Now only outstanding military leaders and famous residents of the city will be buried on this. How the relatives of the president who fled the country managed to get a job there is unknown. The tombstone was erected only three and a half years after the death. The Yanukovych family is unlikely to be in poverty, but for a long time there was an ordinary wooden cross on the grave, a plate with the name and date of life was installed a month after the funeral.
Even more questions arose with the construction of the monument. The bust of the deceased is framed with a round frame with a quote from the 15th chapter of the Gospel of John: "There is no more love than if someone lay down his life for his friends." An employee of the administration of the Nakhimovsky district of Sevastopol, on the territory of which the cemetery is located, told reporters in 2015 that "according to eyewitnesses, he died saving other people: he helped all the passengers to get out of the car, but he did not have time."

Viktor Yanukovych Jr.
According to the widespread version, the 33-year-old son of the ex-president, who was several times elected as a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Party of Regions, died on Baikal while traveling. On March 20, 2015, a Volkswagen van fell under the ice 200 meters from the coast of Olkhon Island. Five passengers of the car were able to get out, but Yanukovych Jr. drowned. Many publications wrote that the son of the former Ukrainian president died "out of stupidity." Usually they drive on the ice with the doors open - in case the ice breaks and the car starts to sink, you can quickly jump out. Yanukovych Jr. drove the car not only with the door closed, but was also fastened.
But even this version of death has no official status. According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the deceased was a native of Moscow named Viktor Davydov. The mother-in-law of Yanukovych Sr.wore such a surname in girlhood, and there is a version that the son of the former president changed his surname immediately after arriving in Russia. In addition, the police did not confirm that the deceased was the son of the ex-president - local sources reported on the death and funeral of the media.
Many not completely clear circumstances of the death of the son former head Ukraine gave rise to a rumor that the death was staged. Last year, the Ukrainian edition of Fakty wrote that Yanukovych Jr. was allegedly seen in Canada after his “death”. According to this version, random people witnessed how the son of the former president with two friends bought an expensive car at a car dealership. Yanukovych Jr. was also noticed when buying the mansion, Fakty reported.
Many Ukrainians live in Canada, and now a considerable number of Ukrainians travel to permanent place residence in this country. Would the government of Canada only start hiding the son of the fugitive president, while almost immediately after the coup in Kiev, it supported the new government? A weak argument in favor of the fact that Canada did grant asylum to Yanukovych Jr. is gratitude for the arms purchases during his father's presidency. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Canada, in 2011 smooth-bore weapons were supplied to Ukraine in the amount of $ 82 thousand. Why Ukraine, which has enough weapons factories, and millions of units of various barrels have been stored in warehouses since Soviet times, needed a couple of dozen smooth-bore Canadian guns, is another mystery of the Yanukovych family. But it is possible that it is she who is the key to other secrets, including those related to the fate of the Ukrainian president's son.
Yanukovych Jr. died at the wheel of a car. However, as he lived most of his life.
