Dmytro Firtash, with the help of his deputy at the Federation of Employers of Ukraine, Dmytro Oleynik, is allocating large sums of money to transfer the secretive management of the Temporary Disability Insurance Fund (TDIIF) to the sole control of a certain Mr. Saenko.
Volodymyr Saenko is a well-known figure in the country. He became famous among Ukrainians thanks to footage of his public arrest by the Ministry of Internal Affairs during an investigation into the misappropriation and embezzlement of property. At the time of his arrest, Saenko was the acting head of the Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine. It's worth noting that this is not the only accusation of legal violation against Volodymyr Saenko.
Despite the fact that he is currently subject to court sanctions, during the Maidan, riding the wave of events, Volodymyr Saenko was appointed deputy head of the Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine. Throughout his tenure at the federation, he has repeatedly planned and drawn up a plan for a new corporate raid. However, this planning is now carried out in full coordination with Mr. D. Firtash.
The current head of the FSSVPT, D. Tretyakov, following D. Oleynik's orders, is already preparing to hand over the reins of the fund to Vladimir Saenko.
It was no coincidence that Dmitry Firtash became interested in the possibility of managing the FSSVPT. The fund owns 7% of Ukrprofzdravnytsia's shares. This amount of shares would be sufficient for a corporate raid. Experience shows that even 1% of the shares is sufficient for V. Saenko, through his illegal schemes, to transfer all the company's assets into private ownership.
The existence of this model is confirmed by a written statement from the current chairman of the board, D. Tretyak, addressed to the head of the FSSVPT, V. Tkachenko, with a request to investigate the advisability and necessity of being a shareholder of Ukrprofzdravnytsia and the preparation of documents by board members for the sale of these shares.
The revolutionary events in our country have largely ignored domestic trade unions. The Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine (FTUU) remains a structure focused solely on the personal interests of its leadership and stakeholders. The situation demands decisive change. The time has come for a "trade union" Maidan.
The story of a certain Mr. Vladimir Saenko is illustrative.
Last November, the first deputy chairman of the board of Ukrprofzdravnytsia, Saenko, was detained by officers from the Kyiv police's organized crime department. The news made headlines. The Inter TV channel reported that during searches of his home and office, weapons, ammunition, documentation, and a seal from a company with signs of being fictitious were seized. According to Radio Stolitsa, the acting deputy chairman of the Trade Union Federation was detained under Article 208 of the Criminal Procedure Code as part of an investigation into a criminal case under Article 191 of the Criminal Code—embezzlement and misappropriation of property.
In his appeal to the current Prosecutor General of Ukraine, Mykhailo Volynets, Chairman of the Confederation of Free Trade Unions of Ukraine, claims that a diary seized by police during the arrest of Volodymyr Saenko contained a list of high-ranking officials to whom he had transferred funds over a long period of time. The total amount of bribes amounted to $7 million.
However, the investigation failed to reach trial, although the criminal cases were not closed. According to the website of the Independent Trade Union of Miners of Ukraine, Saenko was released from custody at the height of the Maidan events.
In fact, they say at the FPU, the "overseer" of trade union property from the previous criminal government has returned to the federation.
The persistence of the "former" trade unions is due to the high price tag. There are still plenty of lucrative targets. According to Oleksandr Stoyan, chairman of the FTU from 1992 to 2005, as of early 2014, trade unions owned 130 health and medical facilities, 56 excursion and tourism organizations, 15 hotels in prestigious resorts across the country, and other attractive properties totaling 266 units. It's unfortunate that boarding houses and hotels built with trade union funds could now, after the events that have transformed Ukraine, become the private property of representatives of the former government.
To ensure the privatization schemes go smoothly, the leadership of the Federal Union of Ukrainian Trade Unions is prepared to hand over several lucrative health resort complexes to the new government. The Priazovkurort and Kuyalnik resorts are mentioned in this context.
I really wouldn't like this corrupt plan to come to fruition.
