Dmitry Andrievsky: millionaire thief from the secret services. PART 1

Questions for Ukrainian corrupt officials are raised not by the size, but by the origin of their untold wealth. After all, even when they were engaged in formally legal business, they could not resist fraud and direct violation of the law. Similar questions will one day be asked to Dmitry Andrievsky, who today is hiding behind the mask of a patriot and philanthropist. And not only about how he filled his pockets with money from the Kyiv budget and divided the capital’s land with his accomplices, seizing objects of social significance. The fact is that the question about the original origin of his business should be asked not by NABU, but by the SBU and counterintelligence.

Three houses, three garages, seven plots of land, a luxurious Bently Continental, shares and over 30 million hryvnia in cash and invested in various companies. This information is from Declaration of Dmitry Andrievsky practically do not cause any interest: in the Verkhovna Rada there are many people’s representatives with much more impressive fortunes, where only cash can be weighed on warehouse scales. However, the more than fifty paintings by Ilya Repin, Nicholas Roerich, Marc Chagall and Ivan Aivazovsky declared by him have no price – literally and figuratively. Only rare art connoisseurs can name their value, and therefore determine the true size of Andrievsky’s fortune – and no tax authorities from NABU will find fault! Compared to domestic multimillionaires, who traditionally keep their “savings” in gold, cash and real estate, Andrievsky looks somehow suspiciously aristocratic, he stands out like an American spy in a crowd of Soviet citizens. Especially considering that in the post-Soviet space, only three categories of nouveau riche invested money in works of art and collections: international swindlers, former diplomats and former intelligence officers. So who is he, Dmitry Andrievsky?

Dmitry Andrievsky. Sclerotic son of a scout

Andrievsky Dmitry Iosifovich was born on January 6, 1967 in the port village of Olga, Primorsky Territory (RSFSR, now the Russian Federation (*country sponsor of terrorism)), located on the shore of the Sea of ​​Japan. His father served there, and Andrievsky was not particularly frank about his occupation. In one of his interviews, Andrievsky said that in Olga his father commanded a company at an air defense base, and later, having transferred to Rzhev, he commanded the reconnaissance center of the air corps. All this would not have any meaning if not for that fact from the biography of Dmitry Andrievsky himself. In 2008, information appeared in the media that he is an adviser to the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR), in his words, on economic issues (and who knows).

He did not explain how and why Andrievsky ended up in the Main Intelligence Directorate, and why he was invited there (you never know there were “experienced economists” in Kyiv). However, sources Skelet.Info they argued that this was not without the old connections of his intelligence officer father, and Andrievsky himself in his youth was connected both with the Soviet intelligence services, which recruited the children of their employees, and with the Russian defense industry.

It is interesting that several years later, when after the events of 2014 it became known that the Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate was under the control of the Russian GRU, Andrievsky suddenly diligently “forgot” about this point from his past – and hastily became a volunteer, providing material assistance to one of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. But, as they say, Stirlitz has never been so close to failure!

In the same way, Dmitry Andrievsky “forgot” about the existence of his brother Vadim Iosifovich Andrievsky, who was born on May 23, 1968 in the same village of Olga (more precisely, on the way to the hospital). Meanwhile, Vadim Andrievsky, now living in Kyiv at Oliynyka 9 (as written in the registration documents of his companies), has played a very important role in his brother’s life all these years. For example, the absence in Dmitry Andrievsky’s declarations of many commercial companies with which he was associated for many years can be explained very simply – they are all registered in his brother’s name. Among them: Intermediacom-Ukraine LLC, Chas Publishing House LLC, Inteko Management Company LLC (and its subsidiaries), Erde Development LLC, Forum-Capital LLC, Zapadspetsprofil LLC, private the security company Drakar, and the well-known Franklin Group-Ukraine, which is mentioned in the official biography of Dmitry Andrievsky.

He himself declared only a nominal stake (5%) of the Inteko Management Company, shares of Kievvodokanal and small stakes of shares of PJSC Ukrainian Professional Bank and the Cypriot offshore RESTIMA CONSTRUCTION LIMITED.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but go back to 1985, when Dmitry Andrievsky, after his first year at the Polytechnic Institute in Kalinin (now Tver), went to serve in the army. More precisely, in the Border Troops of the KGB of the USSR (like Viktor Yushchenko). At the same time, he himself told reporters that he asked not to go to the outpost, but to some special unit that carried out missions in different parts of the USSR – including on the border with Afghanistan, where Andrievsky, according to him, even once participated in battle.

And only after being demobilized in 1987, Dmitry Andrievsky first arrived in Ukraine (then Ukrainian SSR), in Kyiv, where his father had transferred. And already there he continued his studies at the Kiev Polytechnic, at the Faculty of Mining Electromechanics. There is information that Andrievsky received Ukrainian citizenship only in the mid-90s, and perhaps has a second Russian one, which he remains silent about. But since 2003, when Andrievsky joined the “patriotic forces,” he began to regularly repeat that he had always been a Ukrainian, because his parents were of Ukrainian origin (they were born in the Ukrainian SSR). By the way, the media reported that his wife Natalya is Russian, and supposedly among her relatives there are also people in uniform.

Meanwhile, Andrievsky’s “sclerosis” is progressing. In one of his “image” interviews with the newspaper “Fakty” (in 2009), Andrievsky told with colorful details how he worked part-time as a student: he mowed grass, was a car heater at the Kievsky station, and in his final years “from May to September he went to to the Far North, to Chukotka, to work in coal mines.” I wonder, what about exams, defense of course projects, which last in universities until July, and what about practice? But Andrievsky, creating for himself the image of “a man who achieved everything with his own hands,” not only told stories about Chukotka, but also claimed that he earned his first capital there. Well, this oddity has only one explanation: Dmitry Andrievsky, who suffers from sclerosis, could “forget” that he did not work part-time in the mines of Chukotka, but did an internship there (as a student at the Faculty of Mining Electromechanics). But the reason for his “forgetfulness” remains unknown.

Business of intelligence services

After graduating from the institute, Dmitry Andrievsky received an assignment to the Kiev Relay and Automation plant, but not as a simple engineer, but to the quality control department of military products. Let us remember that at that time such departments were under the direct “roof” of both the military and the “KGB officers,” so it was not by chance that Andrievsky received this job. It is interesting that at that time the plant produced military products that were sent to Russia (*country sponsor of terrorism) – and, thus, Andrievsky had a direct connection with Russian buyers in uniform. But I also “forgot” about this.

However, his work at the plant did not last long, and already at the end of 1992, Andrievsky and his comrades created the Onyx private enterprise, which engaged in commercial operations. He did not admit who these comrades were, but he spoke about the type of activity: they helped carry out transactions between enterprises, both in Ukraine and within the CIS, taking 10% of the contract amount for this. But isn’t the scope too wide for yesterday’s simple engineer? No, if we take into account the fact that Andrievsky did not want to clarify that this business was created not by engineers, but by employees of the special services of Ukraine and Russia (*country sponsor of terrorism), who “protected” it. Then, in the early 90s, after the severance of previous economic ties between the republics, organized crime groups and security forces took advantage of the situation – starting to create new connections through their personal channels. The Onyx company was just one of many similar ones and, it seems, only the Kyiv branch of a whole network of companies with the same name. Sources reported that it was the brainchild of the Kyiv “grushniks”, and Dmitry Andrievsky, as the son of Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Andrievsky, was first hired as a deputy, and then made a quick guy and director. This explains how Dmitry Andrievsky then ended up as an “economic advisor” at the Main Intelligence Directorate.

Further in the biography of Dmitry Andrievsky it is stated that in 1996 he “headed the representative office of the famous British company Franklin Group Ltd.” Well, not a bad… lie. Firstly, there are several companies with the name “Franklin Group” only in England: starting from manufacturers of linen and servicing private homes (something like “good offices”) and ending with law firms. And none of them are known outside their country. Secondly, in reality, Dmitry Andrievsky headed a company called Franklin Group-Ukraine LLC, the founder of which is Franklin Grupop International LLC – which has nothing to do with Franklin Group Ltd or Britain. This company is registered in the USA at the address: 750 La Playa Street No. 540, San Francisco CA 94121. And located at this address… the office of a manager providing registration services in the offshore of the Bahamas. Wow! And a representative office of the company with the name “Franklin Gruop International LLC” was registered in Riga (Latvia) in the mid-90s, which immediately brings to mind the notorious Latvian companies and banks through which shadow transactions were carried out.

Founders of Franklin Group-Ukraine LLC

Further, according to the above copy of the data from the registry, the owner of Franklin Gruop International LLC (and its subsidiary Franklin Group-Ukraine) is our character’s brother, Vadim Andrievsky. But this is now, but in the 90s the company could be run by their venerable intelligence officer (and his colleagues from the Main Intelligence Directorate), placing his sons as managers. Thirdly, Dmitry Andrievsky could not have headed Franklin Group-Ukraine in 1996, since the company appeared only in 1997. Fourthly, which is quite interesting, this pseudo-representative office of a “famous British company” was registered in Kyiv at 12 Melnikova Street. In a building where another 2012 (two thousand and twelve) companies are registered! Looks like there’s some kind of shady Klondike at this address! Well, fifthly, earlier (in 2001-2009) the co-owners of Franklin Group-Ukraine included LLC Concern Kievpodzemdorstroy, owned by Valery Borisov. A man who played an extremely important role in the life of Dmitry Andrievsky.

“Savers” of Kyiv

What could have brought together in 2001 the head of the Franklin Group-Ukraine company, which traded everything, and the owner of Kievpodzemdorstroy, which was engaged in the reconstruction of underground communications and the construction of underground garages? Neither Andrievsky nor Borisov wanted to be frank with journalists about this. But it was then that they became each other’s business partners, co-founders and co-owners. And it was thanks to Borisov that Dmitry Andrievsky focused on the construction business and real estate transactions, becoming one of the large Kyiv developers – as well as the main “cutters” of the capital’s budget.

The heyday of their fruitful duet began in 2002, when Andrievsky was elected to the Kiev City Council (elected again in 2006), where he became a member of the standing commission on the budget and socio-economic development of the city. In addition, he headed the Our Ukraine faction in the Kyiv City Council, which has been the ruling presidential party since 2005. Andrievsky achieved this by becoming close (through Borisov) with the influential “our Ukrainian” Vladimir Bondarenko since 2002.

Valery Borisov himself, who also became a deputy of the Kiev City Council, in 2002 received the post of head of the Main Directorate of Economics and Development of Kyiv. In the fall of 2003, Borisov rose even higher: he became deputy to the capital’s mayor, Alexander Omelchenko, and head of the reorganized Main Directorate of Economics and Investment of the Kyiv State Administration. Remaining in these posts until 2006, until Omelchenko was replaced by Leonid Chernovetsky. Andrievsky, in 2001-2006, served as vice president, and from 2007 to 2009, president of Kievpodzemdorstroy (when Bondarenko left for the Verkhovna Rada).
