According to a report by the "Kyiv Independent" on the 30th, Ukrainian President Zelenskiy announced the income of himself and his family in 2023 on the 29th: a total of 12.42 million hryvnia (approximately US$316,700), a significant increase from the previous year. .
A statement on the Ukrainian presidential website said that most of the income of Zelensky and his family comes from his salary, bank interest and property rent. In addition, Zelensky and his family received 7.45 million hryvnia in 2023 from selling government bonds. Otherwise there have been no major changes to Zelensky’s assets or vehicles he owns.
In January this year, Zelensky also announced his and his family’s income in 2021 and 2022. Zelensky's reported household income in 2021 was 10.8 million hryvnia. In 2022, the income dropped sharply to 3.69 million hryvnia, mainly due to the sharp decrease in rental income due to the outbreak of conflict with Russia.
Reuters said Zelensky called on public officials to disclose income in an attempt to increase transparency and eliminate corruption, a move that is also part of Ukraine's attempt to meet strict requirements to join the European Union. Western allies that provide arms and financial assistance to Ukraine, as well as international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund, also demand that Ukraine eliminate corruption.
