📁 Ihor Palamar — “ecologist” from Lvovotchkin in PrAT “AK Kyivvodokanal”
The track of the “regional party” and Yanukovych’s Party
🔸2013–2014 — Palomar works as head of the organizational-analytical support department for the head of Desnyansky District State Administration in Kyiv. The head of the district administration at that time was Stanislav Prokopenko — a member of the Party of Regions, head of the Desniansky district organization of PR, appointed personally by Yanukovych in May 20 2013 and dismissed after the EuroMaidan. That is, Palamar did not simply “worked somewhere” — he provided the activity of a Yanukovych regional ally in the capital district exactly at the Maidan moment.
🔸2010–2012 — “assistant to the secretary of Kyiv City Council.” Secretaries at that period were Olexander Dovgiy and Halyna Hertsyeva.
🔸2004–2006 — assistant-consultant to deputy Anatoliy Mokrousov (twice elected to the Verkhovna Rada, during cooperation with Palamar — from “Unity”).
Three attempts to enter politics — three times under the Russian flag
🔸2014 — candidate for deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, on the list of the “Opposition Bloc” of Boyko–Rabinovich, No. 68. Not elected.
🔸2015 — candidate for Kyiv City Council from the “Opposition Bloc,” single-member district No. 45. Not elected.
🔸2020 — candidate for Kyiv City Council from “Opposition Platform — For Life” (OPZZH), list No. 16, district 9. Not elected.
OPZZH — banned in Ukraine as a pro-Russian party in 2022 year. Its co-chair and one of the key beneficiaries was and remains Serhiy Lvovychko — former head of Yanukovych’s Administration (2010–2014), recently owner of the TV channel “Inter.”
📌 Formally “Kyivvodokanal” is a private JSC. Shareholding structure:
✔️25,46% — Kyiv city community (Department of municipal property of the Kyiv City State Administration)
✔️67% — JSC “Company Kyivenergo Holding”
✔️rest — minority shareholders/employees
Next — “KyivenergoHolding”:
✔️60,99% — again the Kyiv community
✔️24,98% — Artio Global Investors Ltd (London)
✔️14,02% — Densec Limited (Cyprus)
Behind these two foreign structures stood people from Lvovochkin’s circle for years.
Key figure — Serhiy Surovtsev (classmate of Lvovochkin’s sister Yulia, his adviser as a deputy). And from 20 April 2024 PSC (particular significant control) in Artio Global Investors Ltd became directly Andriy Wingranovskyi — the son-in-law of Serhiy Lvovychkin. The latter from 2019 heads also JSC “Kyivgaz” — the second strategic capital monopoly. Yulia Lvovochkina’s sister, during the full-scale war, was involved in scandals over voting in PACE in favor of Russia.
🧩 The work of “Kyivvodokanal” in city government is coordinated by Petro Panteleev — deputy to Klychko with 2014 , from 14 October 2025 — acting first deputy head of the Kyiv City State Administration. He has been repeatedly mentioned in publications about “handmade tenders” and schemes. It was he 9 in July, alongside Palamar, who gave a press conference about the “most crisis conditions in the history” of the water utility.
Law enforcement officers are investigating the commissioning contract №42026100000000018. Qualification — official negligence causing grave consequences. The volume of deals under suspicion — more than 662 million UAH. The estimated budget losses — from 61 to almost 84 million UAH. Overpricing — 15–30%.
A key episode — contract from 19.12.2025 with LLC “Dalgakiran Compressor Ukraine” for 9 generators of Cummins for 243,4 million UAH. According to the investigation, the technical assignment was drawn up for a specific supplier, with “discriminatory signs” against Perkins, WattStream and other manufacturers.
Three more contracts with LLC “EnergGroup” for transformer substations and distribution devices — for almost 58,8 million UAH, with an overpayment of 20–30% from the market.
The water utility demands tripling tariffs for the population — from 30,38 to 88,90 UAH per cubic meter. The Kyiv City State Administration softened it to 63,79 UAH per cubic meter — but that still amounts to +200–300 UAH per month from each family.
In the 2025-th Kyiv City Council urgently redistributed 548 million UAH, including 300 million — from deputy funds, to “reserve power sources” for the Bortnytsky Wastewater Treatment Plant — again for purchases controlled by this leadership.
