If you analyze the events related to Ivanyushchenko’s activities from the moment he was put on the wanted list, you will notice that the ex-“regional” is doing well under the new government.
Thus, the wanted ex-deputy’s business in Ukraine continues to develop: Ivanyushchenko’s companies receive new government orders, and the largest market “7 kilometer”, which has been moved offshore, continues to supply the needs of Enakievsky’s friends in the “DPR” and “LPR” with black cash.
Moreover, Ivanyushchenko’s official press service operates in Ukraine, which, on behalf of the ex-deputy, publishes or refutes news in the media about its boss.
All this is happening against the backdrop of the fact that Enakievsky’s name appears on the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the list of wanted criminals.
Press service of Ivanyushchenko
Yuriy Enakievsky sends out statements through his press service in which he accuses Ukrainian journalists investigating his old frauds and new corruption schemes of slander.
It is noteworthy that Ivanyushchenko’s statements were used as a primary source in a number of central mass media.
Censor.NET decided to contact the said press service for a comment in order to find out first-hand where and how “the main demon of Yanukovych” lives today, how shallow his condition has become and whether it has become shallow, and, in the end, what is the reason for his return to the Ukrainian information space , albeit in virtual form.
However, finding her contacts has turned from a routine matter into a mystery.
Search engines produce a considerable list of news from the press service of Yura Enakievsky:
“Ivanyushchenko was denied the ex-people’s deputy’s connection with the Golden Derik company - July 10, and so on.
From the latest, on July 16, a statement was circulated on the Internet regarding the conflict that had developed around the 7 Kilometer market.
In it, Yuriy Ivanyushchenko regards the attempt to link his name to the conflicts on the “7th kilometer” as a desire to discredit or divert attention from important processes in the region. This statement looks even more strange against the background of the fact that Ivanyushchenko himself has repeatedly declared his involvement in the market, the leadership of which is seen in financing the structures of the “DPR” and “LPR”.
As a rule, statements from Ivanyushchenko’s press service end with promising words:
“Dear colleagues, in such situations we ask you to contact the press service of Yuri Ivanyushchenko, where you will immediately be given complete information and answers to all questions.”
The catch is that, despite the statement about complete openness and readiness to cooperate with the media, in reality Ivanyushchenko’s press service turned out to be not only closed, but simply inaccessible.
The editors of one of the central online media, which published a statement from Ivanyushchenko’s press service, were unable to provide her contacts in response to our request. The publication motivated the refusal by the fact that the editorial office has no connection with the said press bureau, and cannot explain how the news ended up on the site. Let us note that this resource published Ivanyushchenko’s statement at least ten times. We were unable to communicate with the editor of the other site, despite extreme persistence. And all the journalists who could have been involved in publishing the news found themselves either on vacation or on sick leave. However, one of the Odessa publications admitted to us that they published the news with reference to Ivanyushchenko’s press service through an intermediary, whose name they could not name.
This answer probably partly explains Ivanyushchenko’s method of working with other Ukrainian media that agreed to publish his statements. The question logically arises: why does Yuri Ivanyushchenko “jean” on top Internet resources? Why should a person who is wanted, for whom there are a number of serious questions from law enforcement agencies, be reminded of his existence and give, albeit illusory, but still the opportunity to the special services to trace the chain through which certain information gets to the press? Maybe because the “supervisor” of the Yanukovych era, unlike his former patron, still plans to return to Ukraine?
Working business
The main source of cash for Ivanyushchenko is considered to be the Odessa manufactured goods market "7 kilometer". In 2010, the company was inexplicably transferred from its legal owners to Ivanyushchenko’s companies. All owners except one, Denis Voloshin, simply donated their share in the profitable business. And Denis Voloshin, who refused to hand over his part, was forced to hide abroad from Ivanyushchenko’s representatives. Today Voloshin is returning legal property through the courts. Since 2010, the market has been restructured to a work scheme that allows you to get the maximum amount of money, bypassing the budget.
Thus, according to media reports, there are about 20 levies on the market that are collected by temporary businesses from entrepreneurs. For those who are intractable, at the “7th kilometer” there is a special company “Bezpeka Business”, which convincingly offers entrepreneurs its services so that there are no problems.
And recently, a group of people in camouflage have been working at the Ivanyushchenko market. This “patriotic battalion” also helps entrepreneurs pay for services with which they do not entirely agree. Traders repeatedly came out at press conferences to appeal to law enforcement agencies and directly to Governor Saakashvili. Entrepreneurs demanded a financial audit of the market to understand why they were collecting money from them if the market had not been developing for more than five years.
People’s anxiety is explained by the constant scandals that Enakievsky’s enterprise gets into. Either the market management was caught transferring 23 million UAH to LPR enterprises, then the directorate, whose representatives provided jobs for services of a dubious nature, was caught in the scandal, then it turned out that Ivanyushchenko and his representative on the market, Ivan Avramov, were Alexander Kifak in legal matters. But law enforcement officials are still stubbornly silent.
Moreover, in April, MP Sergei Leshchenko reported that the GPU helped to lift the seizure from Ivanyushchenko’s accounts.
Another news was the message that the SBU allowed the companies of Yanukovych and Ivanyushchenko to export coal from the ATO zone.
Law enforcement officials redirect requests from Censor.NET to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the GPU. And the GPU reports that they are looking for Ivanyushchenko, but cannot find him. As for the operating business and the press service, the security forces do not want to communicate, citing the secrecy of the investigation.
If we trace the trend since the beginning of 2015, we can conclude that soon Ivanyushchenko will not only return to Ukraine, but will again be able to participate in its political life. And what? The thesis “War will write off everything” has not yet been canceled. Being a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada and “supervising” from the Family, Yuriy Ivanyushchenko remained invisible to the eyes of the overwhelming majority of the population of Ukraine. But this did not stop him from resolving the necessary issues in his favor. And the fact that now Ivanyushchenko not only calmly continues to own the seized business, but is also trying to come out of the shadows, only speaks of his confidence in impunity and provokes a lot of questions to law enforcement agencies and the authorities in general.
Oksana Bakun
Place of birth, education. Born in Yenakievo, Donetsk region. From 2003 to 2007 studied at the Berdyansk University of Economics and Management (specialty - "accounting and audit", qualification - bachelor).
Career. 1978-1980 - service in the Soviet Army.
As noted in the official biography, from 1981 to 1996. worked at the Yenakievo Coke and Chemical Plant as an electrical workshop foreman, a senior foreman, a deputy shop manager, a deputy chief power engineer, and a deputy director for economics.
1996-2005 - Director of Economics of the Alvi-Invesg company, president of the company.
Since November 2007 - People's Deputy of Ukraine of the 6th convocation from the Party of Regions (No. 111 on the electoral list). Member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Fuel and Energy Complex, Nuclear Policy and Nuclear Safety.
Non-partisan.
Family. Wife - Irina Ivanyushchenko Irina Vladimirovna (born 1962), housewife. Daughter - Dayana (born 1982). Son - Arseny (born 1991).
We can only speak with certainty about one fact from the life of the People's Deputy of Ukraine - he was born on February 21, 1959. These data are published on the Verkhovna Rada website and are consistent with all other published biographies of Yuri Ivanyushchenko. Everything else raises questions. For example, the place of residence of the people's deputy. The parliamentary website claims that this is Yenakievo. Although Ukrainian media call him a resident of Monaco. Let's not quibble over the words - it is clear that Yenakievo is only a place of registration. But having lived permanently in this mining town for almost half a century, Ivanyushchenko had to acquire some kind of real estate there and leave some traces of his activities.
All the Enakievo residents, from whom I, referring to the official biography, was interested in the work history of Yuri Ivanyushchenko, unanimously declared that he had never worked anywhere. Neither do the long-term workers of the Enakievo coke plant, where he supposedly worked his way up from electrical workshop foreman to deputy director for economics for 15 years (from 1981 to 1996). It is interesting that Yuri Ivanyushchenko achieved such career growth without having a higher education (he graduated from the Berdyansk University of Economics and Management with a degree in Accounting and Audit only in 2007), which is a rather atypical case for the Soviet Union. Although for Yenakievo it is not surprising. History already knows one Yenakievite who, having two convictions behind him, managed to head an enterprise and even a Komsomol organization...
By the way, without having a higher education (not just economics, but in general), Ivanyushchenko from 1996 to 2005 was listed as director of economics and president of NPP Alvi-Invest, and from 2005 until the time of his election to the Verkhovna Rada - President of UGK LLC 2000". Both companies are registered at the same Yenakievo address. On Internet reference resources, the first field of activity is described as follows: “Production and sale of coke; Food trade; Footwear trade; Agricultural production; Release of consumer goods; Wholesale trade of alcoholic beverages. Products: Coke; Nails. Services: Passenger transportation." In general, everything is in a heap.
The activities of UGK 2000 LLC can be judged by information about its victory in the tender announced by the Anthracite State Enterprise of the Ministry of Coal Industry of Ukraine for the overhaul of “lot 1 - sections ZKD-90 - 166 units; lot 2 - combine harvester IGS-68 - 1 unit” for the amount of 28675897.20 UAH. True, this happened after Ivanyushchenko went to work in the Verkhovna Rada - in May 2008. There are no other references to the activities of this company.
Also, the media call Yuri Ivanyushchenko the founder of several more companies: CRE LLC (market trade) and Lugresours LLC, which, according to the online publication PRO-TEST, “officially deals with sanatoriums.”
The main source of business income for the recipient of the third (along with the Yanukovych family and R. Akhmetov) financial flow of the country in the late 90s, according to the same PRO-TEST, was the slag dumps of the Yenakievo Metallurgical Plant. True, the publication claims that Ivanyushchenko got into this business after Rinat Akhmetov acquired the plant, and our sources in Yenakievo say much earlier. Therefore, it is difficult to judge who gave what to whom: Ivanyushchenko - the metallurgical plant to Akhmetov, or - Ivanyushchenko’s dumps. Most likely, there was a division based on capabilities and interests. Akhmetov was already focused on the economy and had the resources for this, while Ivanyushchenko preferred money that was easy and did not require intellectual and material investments. By the way, he still has the same preferences now. At least, according to information from the “Left Bank” in Zaporozhye, Yuriy Ivanyushchenko controls “the dumps of two metallurgical plants in the city, which are literally a “gold mine.”
In addition, according to Enakievo sources, Ivanyushchenko “protects the mines,” that is, illegal coal mines, of which, by the way, there are many in Enakievo. The media also report on Ivanyushchenko’s business connection with Luhansk resident Ivan Avramov, co-owner of Donbassholding CJSC, which deals with coking coal and coal transportation. According to Focus magazine, Avramov is one of the hundred richest people in this country. By the way, Avramov attended the wedding of Ivanyushchenko’s daughter in Donetsk.
"Bad Things"
What connects Ivanyushchenko and Yanukovych?
Not good things,” answered briefly an old-timer in Enakievo, who personally knows both Yura Enakievo and the current President...
It should be noted that Yura Enakievsky did not leave behind a clear bloody trail in public opinion. Unlike the same Dolidze brothers, after whom he allegedly seized the crown of the Yenakievo organized crime group, his name is little known even in his hometown. Those who know about him mainly characterize him, some as a “quiet gambler”, others as an “arbitrator”, who always, even under Dolidze (in the 90s, the group of Dolidze brothers operated in Yenakievo, Shakhtersk, Kirovsk , Debaltsevo and also in the Lugansk region), was “above” the Yenakievo criminal world and separated conflicting authorities.
However, perhaps this is a consequence of Ivanyushchenko’s preference for shadow roles. Since, in the already mentioned certificate of the GRU of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, “Yura Enakievsky”, aka “Yurets Maloy”, is called the leader of a “specialized team of killers” that committed more than 40 contract killings, “including the murder of the president of the Shakhtar football club Akhat Bragin (Alik Grek) and the former head of the Azov Shipping Company Anatoly Bandura.”
The Enakievo “criminal group consisted of a business link, which was represented by the Georgian Dolidze brothers, and a military link, headed by Yuri Ivanyushchenko (he also bore the nickname “Yurets Maloy”).” In this link, in addition to Ivanyushchenko, famous personalities included the godfather of Viktor Fedorovich Yanukovych, a certain “Zuy” (Zuyev A.P.), regular killers Salavatov Rafail Takhirovich “Salavat”, Vlad Penkovtsev, a certain Goncharov...”
“On behalf of Yanukovych, Mr. Ivanyushchenko acts as a “supervisor.” Including (functionality left over from presidential times) - a kind of “treasurer” of the first person... He received his current “special powers” not so long ago (contrary to the prevailing misconception) - at the height of the presidential campaign. When Viktor Fedorovich suspected Rinat Akhmetov of excessive not only emotional, but also material sympathy for Yulia Tymoshenko... In the eyes of Yanukovych, Akhmetov seriously “wasted” in the spring, and accordingly in the fall he could not be completely relied upon.”
From these words it follows that Ivanyushchenko became a replacement for Akhmetov for Yanukovych. At least to some extent. Naturally, the loss of part of the influence on the President cannot cause delight in Akhmetov. Yura and Rinat collided with each other when they played a combination: the Minister of Coal Industry was Ivanyushchenkovsky, and the deputies were Akhmetovsky. And although this issue was resolved then (the coal mine was divided peacefully), this was the beginning of a deeper process of division, which is now only intensifying.

State
Experts from Focus magazine counted $102.3 million for the people's deputy, which allowed him to take 108th place in the ranking of the 200 richest people in Ukraine. In February 2014, photographs of one of the largest mansions in Koncha-Zaspa, with an area of 8 thousand m2, located on an area of 35 hectares, which was built by Yuri Ivanyushchenko, were published.

At that moment, there was only one person more influential than him - President Viktor Yanukovych.Criminal prosecution
At the end of January 2015, the Main Directorate for Combating Organized Crime of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine put Ivanyushchenko on the wanted list. The Prosecutor General's Office suspected him of organizing the embezzlement of other people's property and illegal enrichment on an especially large scale under the following articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine: Part 3 of Art. 27 (types of accomplices); Part 5 Art. 191 of the Criminal Code (misappropriation, embezzlement of property on an especially large scale); Part 3 Art. 368 (acceptance of an offer, promise or receipt of unlawful benefits by an official).He disappeared from the view of law enforcement on December 15, 2014. The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Arsen Avakov, stated that Ivanyushchenko organized and financed the “titushki” who kidnapped, beat and killed Euromaidan activists in February 2014.
In January, a Ukrainian court seized funds belonging to Ivanyushchenko in the amount of more than 72 million Swiss francs stored in his accounts in Swiss banks. The Prosecutor General's Office arrested his accounts in Ukrainian banks and his vehicle fleet, and to seize funds abroad, requests for international legal assistance were sent to Latvia, Monaco and Switzerland.
On February 28, 2017, it became known that the Supreme Court of Ukraine closed all criminal proceedings against Yuri Ivanyushchenko.

It's a gloomy time, the holidays are over,
Peace and quiet, peace and quiet.
They're banging on the door, these are the black horsemen,
This is behind me, this is behind me.
It's too late, there's no hiding
Don't blow on the candle in confusion.
I’ll go out without making a sound,
I won't scream.
Let them drive me through the city with a cold
And across the bridge.
Straight to where the blizzard awakened
Old churchyard.
I will run without looking back, without rest,
Just faster, just faster.
Hearing in the chords of frosty air
The tramp of horses, the tramp of horses.
Houses, gardens will remain in the past,
The myth of silence, the myth of silence.
White streets, black riders,
Winter dreams, winter dreams.
The black horsemen of hell have come to you,
With the pain and blood of people I bought them off,
They won't knock on your door anymore,
They are waiting for you to bring gifts - the suffering of people!
The development of the situation in the LPR and DPR follows a negative scenario.
There are clearly visible trends that lead to the rapid degradation of the republics and negative consequences for Russia.
The administrative institutions of the republics are very poorly developed. They are not actually connected with the population and do not reflect its interests. The ideological basis that was the main shaping factor for the emergence of the LPR and DPR is being undermined.
By the way, in response to criticism of undermining the ideological component of the LDPR, Surkov’s team decided to demonstrably return Pavel Gubarev to a secondary position (mayor of a small town). One of the heralds of Surkov’s team, Alexander Chalenko, was assigned to comment on this fact. But this is nothing more than a propaganda trick for a good picture. http://izvestia.ru/news/603178
In 2014, the population well understood the ideological meaning of the ongoing processes and believed in the prospects for strengthening Russia’s influence, but today people are becoming increasingly disillusioned with the actions of the Russian leadership.
Now the population understands that the meaning of the curators’ activities is acquisitiveness and the return of the influence of the former elite (Akhmetov, Yanukovych, Zvyagilsky). There was complete disappointment in the sincerity of the behavior of government officials in the LDPR represented by the heads of regions. The increasing criminalization of economic and financial processes in the region is also obvious to people (the groups of “Yura Enakievsky”, the younger Yanukovych, Lyashko M.M. (Kosogo), Kolesnikov B.V., Arbuzov and others, as well as their representatives in all bodies of the LDPR) .
Sasha - Dentist (Son of Yanukovych)
Ukrainian media take advantage of this situation for propaganda showing the participation of Russian representatives from among advisers and managers of financial flows in money-grubbing.
Lyashko (Squint) - an ominous psychopath who “never gambles in a casino”
More and more new shadow schemes are emerging to control financial flows with the aim of their large-scale “criminal development”. This is how humanitarian aid flows are mastered; in addition to them, new smuggling channels are emerging.
Yura Enakievsky
In Donbass they believe that the main coordinator from Moscow is Surkov V.Yu. initiates this process. Its “curators,” known as Sergei Chaika and “Patriot,” are the direct executors. They provide him with consolidated control over the processes of organizing shadow flows. At the same time, by taking control of the media in the region, they managed for a short period to create the illusion of success in the political and social development of the territory and skillfully manipulate reports to the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation, misleading the country's leadership.
The circle of people who have access to the GDP is extremely limited; they can be counted with the fingers of one hand. Lubyanka is controlled by Vladislav Surkov. There is no alternative and truthful information available.
Two social realities parallel to each other are emerging in the region.
The first is a population consisting almost entirely of socially disadvantaged groups. This part exists on Russian and Ukrainian money and does not have its own political class, except for small networks of activists who provide primitive communication (distribution of humanitarian aid, holding local actions).
The second is the former regional elite, which uses Russian assistance to expand the criminal component of its business in the region. This part is formed from crime bosses, former security officials, mercenaries and Russian “curators” involved in shadow schemes. This is a new and opaque social space for the population and most militias.
Timofeev (Tashkent)
The current situation has an extremely negative impact on the combat effectiveness of the armed forces of the LDPR. There is rapid degradation and disintegration of LDPR units, the moral and psychological climate is deteriorating, discipline is falling. And this is happening against the backdrop of restoring combat effectiveness and improving supplies for the Ukrainian army. The Ukrainian authorities took advantage of the respite. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have now acquired the ability to fight, and foreign assistance in armament and uniforms to Ukrainians is now more effective and significant (snipers have appeared, firing from 2000 m, thermal imagers have appeared, a significant number of night vision devices, new communication and control systems).
The work to create an economic basis for the survival of the LDPR has actually failed. The economic situation is rapidly deteriorating. The position of criminal groups and elements in the region is strengthening. In the DPR, the Minister of Taxes and Duties of the DPR Timofeev (call sign “Tashkent”), who is prone to criminal activities, gradually gained strength, having 800 militiamen under his command. In fact, he and his detachment have a monopoly in the economic and financial sphere. The division of this minister was created with the support of Yanukovych’s people (head of the regional branch of the Party of Regions of the Donetsk region Bobkov). This ministry has become a stronghold for protecting the business interests of the Yanukovych family in the region, and now it causes the greatest irritation among the population. Tax collection by the ministry is more like extortion in the form of cash collections - it concerns small and medium-sized businesses. There are no clear rules for the work of fiscal authorities. This leads to the closure of enterprises that were ready to work even in conditions of hostilities.
Timofeev is increasingly immersed in the redistribution of objects of trade. He created the State Enterprise “Markets of Donbass” under the guise of nationalization. The laws and criteria by which enterprises or property can be nationalized have never been defined.
The LDPR authorities also make money on the markup on coal for the population (in many settlements coal is the only method of heating), on the partial sale of humanitarian aid and medicines through trading networks controlled by the leaders of the LDPR, on the trade in fuel and lubricants (up to 30-40 rubles remain at the disposal of beneficiaries per liter). Smuggling and legal shipment of coal to Ukraine is increasing.
“Black” transactions with the sale of raw materials are increasingly criminalizing the market in the LDPR.
In addition to coal, a lot of scrap metal is exported to Ukraine and the Russian Federation from Donbass. Metal structures are dismantled, equipment is cut
. As information about criminal schemes and shortcomings in the activities of curators from Moscow gradually spreads more and more among the population, the authority of Moscow is increasingly falling. In particular, “curators” from Moscow, Sergei Chaika and “Patriot”, acquired a persistently negative reputation in Donetsk, which is projected onto V.Yu. Surkov himself. The LDPR is confident that he fundamentally does not want to engage in the political development of the DPR. There is a growing belief that he pursues only personal selfish interests in “economic schemes” with the Yanukovych family and Akhmetov.
Operational filming of Akhmetov with Alik the Greek (Akhatem Bragin).
The negative assessment of Moscow “curators” was formed on the basis of numerous cases of manipulation, intrigue, intimidation of LDPR officials, and blocking of many initiatives. There is an opinion that personnel sent from Russia are involved in schemes for the development of budgets allocated by Russia. In particular, this opinion applies to the so-called “Transnistrian team”.
This is the name given to a group of people who arrived in Donetsk in the spring-summer of 2014 to “help” in the formation of the young republic. This is acting head of the apparatus of the Council of Ministers Alexander Karaman, personal secretary of the head of the republic Elena Filippova. It is with them that the following are connected: the Minister of Revenue and Duties A. Timofeev (Tashkent), the head of the apparatus of the head of the DPR M. Leshchenko, the deputy head of the apparatus of the head of the DPR D. Trapeznikov).
The flow of objective information into Russia as a whole is difficult. In the LDPR there is also a situation where, to a certain extent, all the ruling groups in Lugansk and Donetsk are in a state of information blockade, without having the feedback they need in Moscow. It is impossible to convey objective information to the Russian leadership. Therefore, the elite in the LDPR does not know the exact position of Moscow, does not understand the current and strategic goals and objectives, when verbal orders and agreements (from curators) often contradict each other, which leads to internal conflicts.
The issue of humanitarian assistance in the LDPR is one of the most socially pressing. If volunteer humanitarian assistance is carried out in a targeted and transparent manner, then state assistance passes through certain distribution centers and remains outside of proper control, which leads to conflict situations and discrediting the very fact of humanitarian assistance on behalf of Russia. There are constant reports of the sale of humanitarian aid in regional markets. Despite the plight, the leadership of the LPR and DPR did not provide humanitarian aid to enterprises to support the families of loyal, qualified personnel. At the same time, on the contrary, those factories that are economically or industrially connected with Ukraine operate successfully.
In general, the situation threatens Russia's gradual loss of influence in the region. The political landscape that has emerged during the war is still multi-elite (old elites, new field commanders, Russian curators). This is a temporary state, and even despite some displacement of the hryvnia by the ruble, Ukrainian influence in the Donbass not only does not decrease, but is also strengthened. This associated with the return of old politicians to power in the LDPR, the departure of Russian volunteers, the population’s loss of hope for reunification with Russia, the preservation and strengthening of the region’s economic ties with Ukraine. In particular, in the DPR there is a gradual strengthening of the role of some local personnel - Leshchenko, Trapeznikov, Martynov and others (who are representatives of Akhmetov-Zvyagilsky). The role of the People's Council of the Republic remains at a low level; it does not really influence the socio-political situation in the region.
It is obvious that the continuation of the same line from Moscow in relation to the LDPR will lead to irreversible consequences in the Donbass, a complete loss of Russia’s influence and control of the situation and to the victory of Kyiv in its rivalry with Moscow. It is urgently necessary to exclude selfish and selfish people from the supervision of the republics. associated among the population with the former corrupt Ukrainian elite led by Yanukovych.
New and old faces. Preved, "Akhmetovka".
Negotiations between the Troy commander Bely and the Yenakievo thieves Grek, Makar and Koshmare. They keep their word...(Warning, there is profanity)
It was reported about the luxurious wedding of his daughter Yana in Yenakievo, where the newlyweds were honored by the entire color of the Donetsk region, led by Yanukovych (). Boris Krasnov was hired as a decorator, and Maxim Galkin as a toastmaster. Valery Meladze, Eros Ramazzotti and Timothy entertained the guests. Its influence extends to the agro-industrial complex, the Ministry of Defense, State Customs and many other industries. Personal acquaintance with the President of Ukraine also plays an important role in such “authority.”
According to information from the Verkhovna Rada website, from September 2007, when he became a deputy from the Party of Regions, to this day, Ivanyushchenko has missed only 19 meetings. Of these, almost half of the “absenteeism” occurred in the first year of his work in parliament. Compared to the background of many people's representatives, their stability and hard work are simply enviable. But all this is more than surprising, given the fact that seeing Yuri Ivanyushchenko in parliament with one’s own eyes is an impossible task. To confirm this, one more indicator can be cited: “Chronology of deputy speeches” on the Verkhovna Rada website for the required period – from 2007 to 2011 – does not give a single result. There were also no parliamentary requests. The “Legislative Activities” section on Ivanyushchenko’s personal page is replete with two zeros - he has not introduced any bills or amendments. Don't you find it strange that a person who, according to registration, goes to parliament, does not take the slightest part in its work, just like on holiday? So we are talking about another “ghost” of the building under the Dome. “Ghost” who, don’t even doubt it, continues to receive his salary regularly, hourly. By the way, another “parliamentary ghost” Rinat Akhmetov has one (!) submitted bill. In all other respects, the statistics are not very different from those of Yuri Ivanyushchenko.
After Viktor Yanukovych became the President of Ukraine, the name Ivanyushchenko began to appear much more often in the press. So, he was spotted at Yanukovych’s inauguration, and tried to look as inconspicuous as possible: . Soon information appeared that the largest market in Ukraine and Eastern Europe, the Seventh Kilometer, had changed its owner. They said that he was already at the end of 2010, according to Focus magazine, Yuri Ivanyushchenko. “Such a high position of a newcomer in the rating is explained by the connections and business influence of an authoritative representative of the Party of Regions,” the press reported.
In February of this year, Yuri Ivanyushchenko takes a more than unexpected step - he gives his first interview to Korrespondent magazine. In it, in particular, he talks about his relationship with the President, where he says that the information about their friendship with Yanukovych is. At the same time, he noted that “he has known Viktor Fedorovich Yanukovych for a long time.” Answering the question of how they met, the deputy said: “I can’t even remember how it was. It happened somehow by itself, we have a very small city (Yenakievo - ed.).” According to him, he met Yanukovych not on the street, but already at a “more mature age.”
Answering the question of how he lives, Ivanyushchenko said:
At the same time, he confirmed that the company, which is related to his family, actually bought 21% of the shares of the largest market in Europe - the Seventh Kilometer near Odessa. “But we had a condition that we turn the Seventh Kilometer into a civilized market. And this process has already begun,” Ivanyushchenko emphasized.
Commenting on the statements of former head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Yuriy Lutsenko that Ivanyushchenko headed an organized criminal group, the deputy said: “You know what I can’t understand? Why, if someone had such compromising information about me, did they remain silent for so many years?”
Such a session of unexpected revelation from one of the most mysterious and influential politicians in Ukraine could not go unnoticed by the public. The biggest questions were raised by the motivation for this action. According to political scientist Vadim Karasev, linking the names of Yanukovych and Ivanyushchenko damaged the image of the President’s team.
But despite the obvious reluctance (for the time being) to “shine” in the press, stories with a criminal flavor constantly stick to this mysterious figure. So, his name came up. Then information appeared that - and again Yura Enakievsky was right there. True, the owner of Barabashov, Alexander Feldman, believes that the name of Yuri Ivanyushchenko is often used to hide behind people who have nothing to do with him. , Feldman said.
A sensational interview with the Russian crime boss “Taiwanchik”, who is banned from entering almost all countries of the world, in which he admitted that he could come to Ukraine after Yanukovych became president, also turned out to be tied to Ivanyushchenko. As it became known from their sources, . Against this background, the appointment looks like something self-evident.
One of Vadim Karasev’s versions about Yura Enakievsky’s possible attempt to legalize his business was also confirmed. The US Department of Justice reported that Ivanyushchenko hired the lobbying firm Sidley Austin to obtain a diplomatic visa to this country. The reason for this action is that. How can one not remember the “Taiwan boy”, who is expected in America with “open arms” and ready-made handcuffs. Ivanyushchenko, according to him, has nothing to do with the criminal world, Interpol does not seem to be interested in him either, and, nevertheless, he is not allowed into the United States. So, there are more than good reasons for this...
Yura Enakievsky’s interests in the arms business have been discussed and written for a long time. At the same time, it turned out that his influence on the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is much more serious than one might have expected. So information appeared that only . Ivanyushchenko’s interest in this matter, apparently, is broad: from lobbying companies that provide the Ukrainian army with food, to interests in the arms trade.
Thus, an obvious picture emerges. The underground empire of Yuri Ivanyushchenko is becoming more and more like an octopus, which is spreading its tentacles into all strategically important institutions of the state. With the coming to power of Viktor Yanukovych, Yura Enakievsky has every chance of breaking into the Forbes list of billionaires. Although maybe he’s already there, the magazine just doesn’t know about it yet?
