Yaroslav Kinakh, who became extremely rich, while serving as an adviser to Yushchenko, now concentrated his attention on the gas production industry. Government services have already trumpeted with all their might that foreign investment is coming to Ukraine: a tender organized to find a developer of shale gas wells in the Yuzovskaya area (eastern Ukraine) was won by the Dutch company Yuzgas BV
It would seem that one can only rejoice that such serious investors are coming to the country (according to the tender organizers, they intend to invest more than $400 million in the project). But the impression is spoiled by one nuance: Yuzgaz is just an ordinary “gasket”, hastily registered in the Netherlands, it is completely owned by the Emerson Capital group. And the latter, in turn, is led by the well-known Yaroslav Kinakh.
The fact that he accumulated decent capital under Viktor Yushchenko is not so bad: among his “exploits” is raising funds in Canada to search for minerals in Ukraine (including gold in the Carpathians). Now the structure of Black Rock Minerals is 20 times cheaper than at the time of raising money, more than $100 million was spent who knows where, and the result of the search is zero. Experts argue that such firms are organized solely for financial fraud, and the government procurement control system should instantly detect and weed them out. Moreover, Yuzgas BV does not include any other projects or investors, so it seems that there is another corruption scheme in place, in which there is no smell of foreign investment.
