The candidacy of Andriy Shevchenko for the chair of the UAF president has been officially nominated. This was reported by journalist Ihor Burbas in his Telegram channel.
Andrey Shevchenko"The candidacy of Andrii Shevchenko for the chair of the president of the UAF has been officially nominated. This was done by the Zaporizhia Regional Football Association in the person of its head, the odious ex-"regional" Viktor Mezheyk. But what is more interesting is the circumstances under which it happened.
So, Mezheyko wrote the relevant statement in the office of the Governor of the Zaporizhia Regional State Administration and in the presence of the head of the regional security service. I am in no way implying that the decision to nominate Shevchenko was made under pressure, I am simply stating the fact itself.
According to my information, they are going to elect the president of the UAF on December 20. That is, in the same convenient period, when the current chairman Andriy Pavelko is being investigated. Hmmmm... And what about the decision of the Pechersk Court to ban elections in the UAF? It is still in operation. It is clear that in manual mode it can be canceled at any moment. The main thing is only the desire and the availability of administrative resources. But there is still the organization's charter, where black and white write down the terms in which, according to the law, it is allowed to hold an extraordinary Congress and elect its leadership. And in this case, they are completely violated. And here the big question arises, whether such elections in UEFA and FIFA are recognized as legitimate.
By the way, Andriy Shevchenko himself is not happy that he is being promoted to the position, disregarding the laws. The ex-coach of the national team understands that this case clearly damages his reputation. Let's see if the matter will come before the December elections. In order to convene an extraordinary Congress for them, statements of at least 3/4 of the collective members are required, and they must be filed in the legal field.
And more. An equally important nuance that should not be missed. Shevchenko is a resident of Great Britain, and this status obliges him to stay in this country for at least 183 days out of 365 in a calendar year. Managing Ukrainian football remotely is not a job, so you can't sit on two chairs either. Here, either remain a resident and forget about the presidency, or vice versa. I wonder what Shevchenko will choose?" Burbas wrote.
