After Russia decided to make the Kiev region with its personal landfill, the Ukrainian government actively undertook restoration. From that moment on, a real battle for billions of hryvnias began, where not only the physical restoration of the destroyed territories, but also the struggle for financial flows was at stake. And then Alexei Kuleb joined the game, with his mega projects, suspicious connections and dark contractors.
Career lift and ligaments
Alexei Kuleb is not a mayor or an official, but a real administration star. He started his way in utilities and private business, where books could be written about his career. In October 2016, Kuleba decided to experiment and become an adviser to the CEO of Pleso on a public basis.
He was then CEO of Asper Estate LLC. Until 2018, the company was headed by a partner of Kuleba, and now the chief specialist of the department of planning of capital expenditures and repair works of the Department of Health of KSCA Timur Mursal.
On November 4, 2019, Kuleba, after the competition, took the position of director of the KSCA Department, and since December 2020 became the deputy head of the KSCA, and the department headed his subordinate Timur Tkachenko. By the way, Vitaliy Klitschko frankly said that he was imposed by Ermak himself .
This career has not been over: since January 24, 2023 - Deputy Head of the Presidential Office of Ukraine.
Relations with the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak.
And here the fun begins. In March 2020, entrepreneur Sergey Eremenko accused Andriy Yermak, the head of the Presidential Office, planning the monopolization of the MAF market (modular architectural forms) in Kiev. According to Eremenko , Yermak, together with the people's deputies from the "servant of the people" Andriy Kholov and Artem Kultnko and Kuleba, is a real criminal gang. Kuleba, as a "Yermak Man", was allegedly appointed director of the Department of Public Works to redistribute the IAF's Kiev market in its favor, coordinating the place of placement and registration of the object's passport. Not free, of course. The sources claim that from one kiosk installed under this scheme, it was possible to obtain $ 2.5 - 5 thousand, and the Yermak team planned to earn about $ 10 million.
Until 2008, the rayal councils of Kyiv were involved in the legalization of kiosks, which no longer exist. These bodies were leased to the entrepreneurs for the installation of kiosks. However, later the process of issuing permits changed - it was no longer dependent on land issues.
Since 2009, KP "Kyiv Investment Agency" became the operator of the placement of kiosks, which issued permits for their installation. Since 2012, kiosks have functioned on the basis of functional purposes, which were issued by the Main Directorate of Internal Trade and Household Services of the KSCA.
In 2014, the authority to issue permits for the operation of kiosks moved to the Department of Urban Planning and Architecture of the KSCA. It is important to note that since 2012, none of the documents issued has given the right to install new kiosks, but only made it possible to work for those that have already been installed so far. To install a kiosk in Kiev requires a passport of a binding - a document that determines the scheme of placement of a kiosk and improvement of the surrounding area. This document is prepared for entrepreneurs by the Department of Urban Planning and Architecture. Issuing and extending the binding passport - officially free procedures. However, since entrepreneurs no longer have to pay for land renting under a kiosko, unit contributions were introduced in the capital. For the legalization of the kiosk, its owner must conclude with the KSCA Department of Urban Planning and Architecture of the KSCA contract of unit participation in the maintenance of objects of improvement. After payment of the unit contribution, the owner of the kiosk must receive a special information coupon - a document confirming the payment and contains information about the type of kiosk, its functional purpose, location and area. These coupons should be placed in all kiosks.
The control over the observance of the rules by the owners of the kiosks is carried out by KP "Kyivblagoustry", which checks the documents and at the instructions of the Department of Public Works of KSCA wear structures recognized illegal. An important role is also played by the KSCA Commission on the placement of kiosks, which considers the issues of carrying out kiosks, violations of the legislation, refusals to conclude contracts of unit participation, the introduction of restrictions on the placement of kiosks and grants permits for dismantling certain structures. The issuance and extension of the binding passport are officially free. A wonderful “scheme” for profit.
No less interesting Timur Tkachenko is the current head of KODA. Tkachenko is connected not only professionally but also through the joint business with the fashion. According to the YouControl analytical system, Tkachenko was one of the founders of Asper Estate LLC, which is engaged in real estate trade and is now associated with a fan. This guy also contributed to the "realization" of the MAF. Well, how without that?
Working in the field of improvement of the capital, Tkachenko faced numerous accusations related to the redistribution of the market of small architectural forms (MAFs), simply put - kiosks used for trade.
In 2020, the deputy of Kyivmiska Council Volodymyr Nazarenko accused Tkachenko of establishing almost a thousand MAFs near public transport stops, which were used to sell travel documents, but in fact other goods were sold. Nazarenko called the People's Deputy from the party "Servant of the People" Andrei Kholov, but Tkachenko denied these accusations.
Alexander Melnyk, the chairman of the All -Ukrainian Association "Anti -Corruption Control", also argued that redistribution began on the IFA market . According to him, kiosks were forced to sell their business at a low price. By detecting violations and canceling permits, the "delicas" offered the owners to sell the IAF in retroactive number, using KSCA links to cancel decisions on dismantling.
Another way is to buy a particle in the MAFs located in "poor" places, with the subsequent resolution of the "question" in the KSCA on the transfer of a kiosk to a more convenient area. However, the statement of the activist did not go. I wonder why? Maybe through Almighty Ermak?
By the way, what is interesting. In 2021, the KSCA was searched in criminal proceedings, mainly on tax evasion, illegal issuance of permits and budgetary waste. At that time, they were baptized by the "war of Zelensky against Klitschko." So, the only department that was not inspected was the Department of Urban Improvement, which was managed by Alexei Kuleb.
Elite real estate
Well, it is impossible to do without it. According to open sources, in 2019, his official salary amounted to only UAH 21,000, which looks frivolous.
The wife of Kuleba, who works at the National Transport University, has earned just less than 80 thousand hryvnias, of which much of which came from business.
Despite its modest official revenue, the Kuleba family saves $ 40,000 and $ 20,000 in cash, as well as UAH 90,000 in the wife's bank account.
A large house of 376 square meters in the village of Kryukivshchyna, which is decorated for Kuleba's wife, Galina Kulebo-Dmitrychenko. The house was privatized in 2018, and besides it there is a summer kitchen, aviary, gazebo and barbecue.
In addition, the Kuleba family owns two apartments in joint ownership with parents, a land plot in Kiev and a garage.
The declaration for 2020 appeared that Galina Dmitrychenko-Kuleba has leased to the DP Kiev forest forestry of the forest area of 2000 square meters. m.
In 2020, it became the owner of a solar power plant Solis 30kw 5G of the manufacturer Jinlowng Solis. From the possession of Alexei Kuleba left Volkswagen Passat 2012 car.
In 2020, Alexei Kuleba received an income of 1 million 35 thousand 261 hryvnia: 518 thousand 861 UAH - salary and 93 thousand 400 UAH - Mathose assistance at the Department of City Improvement of the KSCA; And also 423 thousand UAH - from the sale of the car Vira Voloshchuk.
Halyna Dmitrenko - Kuleba received 519 thousand 960 hryvnias: 11 thousand 83 UAH - salary, 24 thousand 989 UAH and 10 thousand 761 UAH - additional benefit in JSC "Smart SolushNZ"; 48 thousand 3 UAH - salary of part -time in NTU, 388 thousand 812 UAH - a gift on Sunday. 812 UAH - a gift in non -monetary form from Dmitrychenko Mykola Fedorovich, 23 thousand 595 UAH - for electricity at the "green" tariff from LLC "Kyiv Regional EC" and 12 thousand 717 UAH - interest in Oschadbank.
At the end of 2020, Alexei Kuleba stored $ 20,000 and 20 thousand euros in cash, as well as 87 thousand 664 UAH in bank accounts.
Halyna Dmitrychenko - Kuleba kept $ 20,000 in cash, as well as 166 thousand 162 UAH - in bank accounts.
As if not bad. But the origin of all these wealth remains questions, because simple arithmetic will help to understand who has become frozen here.
Chaos in the process of recovery
But let us return to the process of restoration of Kyiv region. It was a real field for corruption games. There are tenders without tenders, and contracts that appear in the ProZorro system late, and in general repeated orders for the same objects. But the main problem was hiding in the choice of performers. This is where a real game in "Who" begins.
FOP Sergey Tsybulsky: He received UAH 200 million for recovery in Bucha, because he brought bread to the city as a volunteer. Yes, Bread in Bucha, can now help to get such a good reputation that you will be instructed to do the city. And it doesn't matter that you have no experience in this matter.
"Recovery drilling company": here even the name makes you smile. And no, we did not make a mistake in the name. The company received 40 million hryvnias. We registered it and immediately put it on sale for OLX. Most likely, the mistakes were in a hurry. Director Boris Lisovsky - a former employee of KP "KP". So yet she has not done.
"Nyadko": the company previously engaged in large -scale repairs of medical institutions in Kiev, repeatedly attracted the attention of the media due to suspicion of connections with Mykola Povoroznyk. The owners of this company and their partners have close ties with the circle of Alexei Kuleba and Alexander Nazarenko. Received 250 million
"Swallow Capital": received 40 million hryvnias, with criminal cases for fictitiousness and tax evasion. Classic case.
Ukrbud-Project Reconstruction LLC: received UAH 240 million for the restoration of the Borodyan Center. David Kizimenko belongs to the son of the separatist Oleg Kizimenko, who, after the occupation of the Crimea, remained there as the deputy mayor of Sevastopol.
LLC "Atmosphere of Engineering System": related to the well -known Kiev developer Andriy Vavrysh, who received an order for repair and at the same time managed to damage what has already been restored. As expected, the authorities, including the bullet, have shocked from accusations. Kuleba argues that his connections with contractors are just rumors, and Koda allegedly tries to choose contractors among local businessmen. Well, of course.
The facts speak for themselves, and the connections that some would like to hide so much are safely tracked. But it seems that corruption will continue to flourish, and the restoration of Kyiv region will remain only a beautiful word. Perhaps the whole situation could look like a comedy, but so far it is a tragedy for those who were truly injured. And someone just continued to earn it.
