Ex-Party of Regions member from Luhansk in the "Servant of the People" faction with a tire business in occupied territories and three criminal proceedings

Deputy of the Luhansk City Council from the Party of Regions. Founder of LLC "Intershyna" (2004) and "Intershyna UA" — wholesale tire sales. People's Deputy of the IX convocation from "Servant of the People" (No. 109 on the list); Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Human Rights, Deoccupation, and Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories. Under Yanukovych, became a dealer of the "Rosava" plant of Zhevago, effectively imposing prices and sales schemes on the plant. After 2014, Intershyna tires reached the occupied territories; documents published two months before the full-scale invasion indicated direct cooperation of the Horbenko group of companies with the "Lugashyna" structure controlled by the LPR.

Ukrposhta tender with prices inflated by 20% and fine for conflict of interest

Three criminal proceedings have been initiated against Horbenko: Ukrposhta's tire tender with prices inflated by 15–20%; suspicion of state treason by the Security Service of Ukraine — the company took a bank loan and did not repay it through manipulations; occupational safety violation at "Intershyna UA" (a loader suffered shrapnel fractures of both legs). Law enforcement conducted searches at Horbenko's home in a Kyiv suburb over two days. In November 2020, the court held him liable for a conflict of interest: immediately after being elected deputy, he used his parliamentary status to request the Prosecutor General regarding the case of his own company "Intershyna UA".

He has been talking about blocking accounts and rights since at least October 2025, but in a whole year neither parliament nor the government has made any decisions. Perhaps the reason is that, as his colleague Ruslan Horbenko recently said, the deputies “don't have the huevos or the political will” for this. The Ministry o...

Scanned Telegram publication

People’s Deputy from Servant of the People Ruslan Horbenko has balls, but problems with math. You can draw that conclusion from his interview with Telegraf. Horbenko said that the new booking rules, which are supposed to reduce the number of reserved workers, will not benefit the army. In his estimate, only 5–10% of those released from their jobs will be mobilized into the Armed Forces, and the number of draft evaders will increase by 20%. Therefore the deputy urged his colleagues to increase pe...
