The figure from the Míndich tapes has headed Rivne NPP: what is known about Taras Tkach's appointment.
Taras Tkach has spent more than 25 years in the atomic energy system. He has held leadership positions at Energoatom, was responsible for production and maintenance, and since September 2025 year he has headed Rivne NPP.
This was reported by 'Vykryvach'.
At first glance — a routine career path for an experienced nuclear specialist.
But there is a nuance.
According to Bihus.Info, Tkach's surname appears in materials of the so-called 'Midas' case. His appointment to Rivne NPP was discussed by former Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko's adviser Ihor Myroniuk and former security official of Energoatom Dmytro Basov.
In conversation it sounds maximally laconic: 'Tkach at Rivne'.
Of course, the mere mention does not mean that Tkach is a suspect or participant in a criminal scheme. In open sources we did not find information about his being charged in the 'Midas' case.
But another question arises: why was the personnel appointment of the head of a strategic atomic station discussed by people who later found themselves at the center of one of the loudest corruption scandals in the energy sector?
And who really influenced personnel decisions inside Energoatom?
This looks especially interesting against the background of another story about Tkach — his family assets.
Because while in the atomic industry people counted megawatts, his family leader at Rivne NPP was found to own a mansion, a penthouse, and a premium car fleet.
