Who in Groysman's "humanitarian headquarters" is responsible for creating the voter grid
One of the most active members of the so-called "humanitarian headquarters" of Volodymyr Groysman in Vinnytsia region is the general director of "Vinnytsiaoblteploenergo, a representative of the former prime minister's party, Andriy Kovalev.
This person was accused of involvement in land and indirect bribery of voters. And now he is almost called the new face of Groysman's Ukrainian Strategy, UNN writes.
Land land carve-up and political defections
Andrii Kovaliov first became a member of the Vinnytsia Regional Council was first elected to the Vinnytsia Regional Council in 2015 from Samopomich, the party of Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovyi, which at that time had a certain political weight in Ukraine.
In 2018, the Vinnytsia Regional Council made several attempts to tried to pass a decision to allocate 10 hectares of forest to a private structure, but it never received the required number of votes. It was reported that the issue was lobbied by the political party of then-President Petro Poroshenko.
In December 2018, thanks to four decisive votes of Samopomich MPs, the issue was finally pushed through. One of those who who voted for the land carve-up was Andriy Kovalev .
A scandal ensued, and the deputies began to claim that they had pressed the "yes" button by accident.
The party organized a debriefing, and four deputies were asked to take a polygraph. Three of them agreed, and according to former MP from Samopomich Oleh Lavryk claimed only Kovalev was suspected of lying.
"As for Vadym Solianyk and Serhii Stadnik, the results of the detector results are quite positive, which indicates that they did not actually actually disoriented. As for Andriy Kovalev, who passed the lie detector, the polygraph examiner concluded that the interviewer was lying with a 98% probability was telling a lie," Lavryk said.
But, apparently, this unfortunate fact did not particularly bother Kovalev. did not bother Kovalev. He probably realized even then that Samopomich was a futile party. У In June 2019, he left Sadovyi's political force and joined the party of Ihor Smeshko. Smeshko, who gained a relatively good 6% in the presidential election.
However, the change of political roof did not help Kovalev to become an MP. In the early parliamentary parliamentary elections in his constituency, he took a more than modest sixth place.

This was the end of Kovalev and Smeshko's "love", and in 2020 our hero joined Groysman's Ukrainian Strategy, from which he became a deputy of the Vinnytsia Regional Council. And there is a suspicion that it was with the assistance of the USG that he headed the Vinnytsiaoblteploenergo utility company in 2021. Although, he has nothing to do with heat, he has nothing to do with heat or energy, as he is an economist by first degree, and a lawyer by the second.
By the way, Kovalev did not come to the USG from Samopomich alone, but together with alone, but with Ihor Khmil, who is now engaged in trying to put Trostianets ATC under the total control of Hroisman's party.
And Kovalev returned to his favorite land issues in the regional council. land issues that he loves.
At the height of the Russian invasion, in September 2022, Kovalev, as head of the regional council's commission on construction, municipal property transport and infrastructure development, tried to push through the issue of the allocation of three hectares of land to Vinobliss for commercial residential development. However, there were not enough votes for this .
Humanitarian in exchange for a passport in exchange for a passport
The headquarters created by Vinnytsia Regional Council Chairman Vyacheslav Sokolovyi and Vinnytsia Mayor Serhiy Morgunov created under Groysman, Kovalev as a representative of the charity front "Vinnytsia is a comfortable and safe city".
In 2018, Kovalyov was repeatedly accused of using this organization to distribute humanitarian aid, that he was using this structure, under the guise of distributing humanitarian aid was engaged in indirect bribery of voters. After all, the food packages from Kovalev were given not for freebut in exchange for passport and other data.
Those who know the subject know that this is how the network of potential voters was formed. of potential voters was formed in this way.
And what is most interesting is that the humanitarian aid Kovalev used to appease his potential voters, he received from abroad. That is, it cost him nothing to form his networks cost him nothing.
Kovalev's foundation does not shy away from these methods even now. В The foundation's announcement clearly states that in order to receive humanitarian aid, you must come with an identity document.
So it turns out that during the war, when the whole country is working for our victory, Groysman's party is working for the upcoming elections. And Kovalyov does not gives up hope of getting into the Verkhovna Rada.
At least, according to local media, he is considered to be one of the new faces of the is considered one of the new faces of this party.
And hence, accordingly, such "charitable" and media and media activity of Kovalev.
