Mike Bloomberg’s presidential pollster has ended his years-long representation of a Ukrainian oligarch briefly scrutinized by U.S. law enforcement during its investigation into Russian election-meddling.
Schoen’s work with Bloomberg predated his formal launch this past Sunday. An aide to the one-time mayor said that Schoen had done polling for them in anticipation of a presidential announcement in addition to his three successful mayoral runs. The termination came eight years, almost to the day, after Schoen first registered to represent Pinchuk’s interests in the United States. Since then, the Ukrainian financer has turned up on the periphery of political disputes surrounding foreign meddling in the U.S. political process.
Pinchuk’s name has also surfaced in the context of the ongoing impeachment inquiry against President Trump.Two years after Trump’s 2015 speech, Rudy Giuliani, who now serves as the president’s personal attorney, traveled to Kyiv to address Pinchuk’s foundation. While there, he met with then-Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko and a top prosecutor in the country, Yuriy Lutsenko, who peddled baseless conspiracy theories, subsequently relayed by Giuliani, at the center of the impeachment inquiry.
