Kiev. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – January 8, 2021 – Local News
The unexpected death of longtime Boryspil Mayor Anatoliy Fedorchuk, who won the October 25, 2020 election, has caused a run-off on January 17.
17 candidates will run for mayor again, which indicates a serious interest from the political elites, who did not show themselves before, because in fact they had no chance to fight the now deceased Anatoliy Fedorchuk. Consideration of candidates for the post of mayor of Boryspil will be conducted in alphabetical order.
1. Vladislav Baichas
Vladislav Baichas ran for the Servant of the People party in the last election, receiving just under 10% of the vote and finishing third, but this time he is running for office. Probably, this is due to the fact that a coalition of Batkivshchyna, OPZZh, Sluga Narodu and Nash Krai parties was formed in the City Council, which supported Baichas, the secretary of the council, as the only candidate for mayor.
In general, Baichas is a very famous and colorful character in Boryspil, who for the most part always accompanied the figure of Serhiy Mishchenko, an ex-MP who is gradually losing his position in the 98th constituency, where he was repeatedly elected to the Verkhovna Rada. It should be added that Mishchenko and Baichas remain friends, godparents and business partners.
Since 2007, Baichas has been listed as Mishchenko’s aide, when the latter was a member of the BYuT faction, but after Yanukovych came to power, both were quickly repainted. In 2010, Baichas became a deputy of the Boryspil District Council for the first time, which he then headed. Then Baychas joined the ranks of the ” Party of Regions “, arguing that the government should be monolithic. In 2014, due to the revolutionary events on the Maidan, he resigned. Interestingly, in the 2015 local elections, Baichas was led by the pro-government BPP – Solidarity party, and was re-elected chairman of the district council.
Baichas’ last name became widely known due to a scandalous accident in 2010 involving his 18-year-old son Dmytro, then a student of the law faculty of the Kyiv National University. Shevchenko. As a result of road accident the woman, the driver of the second car suffered. Baichas’ son is currently working in the capital’s prosecutor’s office.
In addition to politics, Baichas was actively involved in business. Since 1992, he has worked in the field of fuel sales. In his interview, Baichas said that the image of the bandit from the 90s was formed by opponents of People’s Deputy Mishchenko, because they could not know the gaps in the biography of the latter. However, Baichas noted that he had to defend his business many times, as there were cases of extortion and theft of fuel. At the same time, as a former boxer, he solved all the problems on his own.
In 1995 Baychas heads Ltd. ” Nice “, which delivers gasoline. This company was also called a monopolist in the supply of fuel for the airport. Now, according to state registers, the co-owner of the company is the father of the chairman of the district council – Mykhailo Baichas, his wife – Natalia Baichas, and Olga Seraya (mother-in-law of MP Mishchenko), who owns 50% of the company.
In the biography of the candidate featured another interesting company – JSC ” Yevronaftoprodukt ” , which owns the oil base in Boryspil. Now the whole network of gas stations of Boryspil district is connected with the surname Baichas. There are other companies to which Baichas is related – FG ” Kalne “, PE ” Dnipro ” and others.
Media repeatedly wrote that eksnardep Mishchenko Baychas and his associates have a keen interest in the airport ” Borispol “. It was reported that the nearest parking lots to the airport terminals are serviced by the Airport Parking company, the founders of which are Mishchenko’s friends. The company was established in February 2014 and without a competition took over the rights of another Boryspil company – ” TMD Service “. However, the ex-deputy denied all accusations.
In addition to fuel business Baychasa family owned company engaged in real estate (OOO ” Nice Tower “) and huge land fund to the bank of the Dnieper (total land area Baychasiv family is about 70 hectares). In addition, Baychasu owned and hunting LLC ” Rzhyshchiv hunting ” which issued on parent council secretary.
Baichas maintains contacts with the heads of a number of enterprises that regularly win tenders for works in the district. Serious connections in law enforcement agencies allow to ” smear ” local officials from criminal proceedings.
2. Vladimir Borisenko
Candidate for the post of Boryspil City Council Vladimir Boresenko as in the October elections, running for the party ” European solidarity “. Note that last time he finished second with a result of 14%, or 2998 votes.
Borisenko first time participating in the elections: in 2010 he was elected to Boryspil City Council of the party ” Front for Change “, which received the largest number of seats. Interestingly, in 2014, he unsuccessfully ran for parliament in constituency 98 of the party ” Front for Change “, but before the elections to it were assassinated: the private courtyard politics threw a grenade RGD-5, but his shot candidate. According to Borysenko, he was wearing a bulletproof vest at the time, which he began wearing after threats. However, the then head of the SBU Valentyn Nalyvaichenko said that it was Borisenko’s election PR, which he set up himself…
In the 2019 parliamentary elections, Borysenko ran in 98 constituencies as a self-nominated candidate, but did not receive sufficient support. He was an assistant to People’s Deputy Andriy Ivanchuk in the last convocation, who was noted for truancy, Greekism and numerous cases of button-pressing. Note that the founder Borisenko PP ” Boriki “, which works in construction, and was listed as the commercial director of ” CF Group “, which organizes work duty free shops at the airport ” Borispol ” and easier – Duty Free.
“CF Group ” associated with the above Ivanchuk People’s Deputy, as Director Yuri Grishchenko convene for two consecutive working as an assistant deputy. Interestingly, at one time a relative of Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk worked in the same firm. At the time, Prime Minister Yatsenyuk conspiring with the Minister of Infrastructure Maxim Bourbaki resulted in the company of their fellow party members ” CF Group ” received was the only one that has the ability to trade in ” Borispol”.
Local convinced Borisenko that the city council will defend their positions very influential chefs who plan to continue the expansion of the airport ” Borispol “. It was they who bought a rating party for Borisenko, because last year he went to the polls as a self-nominated candidate.
3. Oleg Veres
This is not the first time that Oleh Veres, a representative of the Svoboda party, is running for office. In the 2015 elections, he tried to get into the Kyiv Regional Council, but failed. Instead, he managed to become a deputy of the Boryspil City Council. It should be noted that in the 2020 elections, the Svoboda All-Ukrainian Union did not run for the Boryspil City Council, but a little more than 1,500 voters (7.16%) voted for the candidate Veres.
Veres as five years ago, a senior engineer in the Kiev city branch of JSC ” Ukrtelecom”.
4. Oleg Voloshin
The man did not take part in the previous elections of the head of the Boryspil community. It is known that he comes from Kagarlyk, where he still lives.

In September 2017, he was appointed Deputy Chairman of the Kagarlyk District Council of the 7th convocation. In 2019 he ran to the Verkhovna Rada of ” Radical Party Oleg Lyashko “. From the same party he ran for the head of the Kagarlyk community in the 2020 local elections.
Given that the man has nothing to do with Boryspil, he may be a technical candidate for one of the leaders of the election race.
5. Vladimir Galagan

Last year he lost no opportunity to remind its citizens of ” merit ” Deputy corrupt mayor Mykola Korniychuk of ” Solidarity ” systematically lowering the rating of the party Poroshenko. However, Korniychuk was detained for bribery right in his office, so the accusations were partially justified.
It should be added that Godunok got his rather good rating on systematic scandals. He received the ” formidable ” nickname “robber” after President Volodymyr Zelensky expelled him from a meeting in 2019. Interestingly, a criminal case was opened against Godunko for a fight with the settler Igor Petrovskis in the city council building.
By the way, this is not the only criminal trace of Godunk. According to open access data, the current “star” of local politics began his service in the Berkut special unit, but was expelled in 2000. On suspicion of drug trafficking, Godunok and several police “brothers” raided the apartment of a Kyiv resident.
