→Greg Craig and the Obama admninistration
In the summer of 1996 Pinchuk was kidnapped. There is a version that Pavel Lazarenko was involved. Lazarenko was a friend of then father-in-law of Pinchuk - Vladimir Arshava and the reason was the breakdown in the family of Victor Pinchuk and his wife Elena Arshava. Pinchuk-controlled “Credit Bank” paid the kidnappers $ 5 million in ransom.
