Rostislav Shurma: the trump card in Rinat Akhmetov's sleeve

During a short period of acquaintance with Volodymyr Zelenskyi, the deputy head of the Office of the President, Rostislav Shurma, was able to become his confidant and close a number of issues that determine the economic policy of the state. At the same time, Shurma's background is closely related to Rinat Akhmetov, who retained influence over his ex-manager.

Rostislav Shurma has been in Volodymyr Zelenskyi's team relatively recently - since November 2021. By this time, Shurma worked for 13 years in the structures of Rinat Akhmetov. It was during that period that the foundation of the family business of Rostislav and his brother Oleg was laid, and in the SBU reference on Shurma, the description : "shadow mayor of Zaporizhzhia from Akhmetov" appeared.

It is worth noting that as a manager at one of Rinat Leonidovich's factories, Shurma was also involved in the oligarch's political projects, even managed to become a regional council deputy from the Party of Regions. Having political influence in the Zaporizhzhia region, Rostyslav Shurma became involved in a large number of corruption scandals: from the "sprinkling of the budget" to the illegal allocation of land in Zaporizhzhia, which was reported by the local press.

But you won't surprise Ukrainians with corruption scandals. Thus, the high-profile investigation of Bihus.Info , in which journalists found evidence of illegal enrichment of Rostislav and Oleg Shurm, who received funds from the budget "at the green rate" for the operation of solar stations at the TOT of Zaporizhzhya region, ended in literally nothing in legal terms. As NV journalists report , judge Svitlana Shaputko of the Pechersk Court, related to Oleg Tatarov, closed the case "on conflict of interests".

In turn, the journalists of our publication were interested in facts from the biography of Rostislav Shurma, which, according to our sources, were documented by the security service of Rinat Akhmetov and help the richest Ukrainian through his ex-manager to influence economic processes in the state. In particular, on energy, which is close to Rinat Leonidovich.

These facts are not simply related to the corruption schemes of Rostislav Shurma, but also intersect with cases of treason, which can put an end to the brilliant career of Rostislav Ihorovych. Two cases from Zaporizhzhia are interesting in this area: Oleg Kizimenko and Vyacheslav Boguslaev, accused of treason.

As our publication learned, the companies of the traitor Oleg Kizimenko, in agreement with Rostislav Shurma, won tenders worth tens of millions in Zaporizhzhia . We remind you that, according to the investigation, Kizimenko participated in the creation of the occupation authorities of Sevastopol, voluntarily transferred official information with confidential and personal data to Russia, and personally organized a parade of military equipment of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on May 9, 2014. At the court hearing, the accused fully admitted his guilt.

The second interesting similar case is the collaboration between Rostislav Shurma and Vyacheslav Boguslaev, accused of high treason This case is interesting primarily because Shurma and Boguslaev had joint "business projects", including those with a corruption component . We remind you that the security service of Renat Leonidovych carefully recorded all the "dark affairs" of his TOP manager Rostislav Shurma.

As noted by our sources close to Rinat Akhmetov, one of the reasons for Shurma's dismissal from the oligarch's structures was information from the oligarch's Security Service about Shurma's systematic thefts at factories, in particular the "element scheme." As you can see, in 13 years, Rinat Leonidovich has accumulated a lot of interesting things about the ex-manager, which can appear in the press at any moment.

According to our publication, Rostislav Shurma still has an influence on the political and economic processes taking place in Zaporizhzhia. For example, Shurma oversees the activities of Ivan Fedorov, the head of the military administration of the Zaporizhzhia region, and recently, together with Rinat Akhmetov's business partner, Vadim Novinskyi, who is subject to sanctions, was replaced as acting head of the military administration. the mayor of Zaporizhzhia, Anatoly Kurtev, to Regina Kharchenko. What is indicative in this situation is that Shurma continues to work in the interests of Akhmetov's structures.

It is also worth noting that despite the war and other circumstances, Rinat Akhmetov has continued to finance Muslim communities, both in Ukraine and in Russia, for many years. about the construction of mosques by Akhmetov appeared on regional websites The most famous of them is the White Mosque in Bulgaria (Kazan, Russian Federation) and the mosque in Donetsk, which was built back in 2012. The latest information is at the level of rumors, about the allocation of funds by Rinat Leonidovych for the construction of a mosque in Kyiv. Given the dynamics of Islamization in Ukraine, Renat Leonidovych will be able to maintain his political influence under any government.

Regarding the influence on economic processes in Ukraine, it is no secret that the current Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal was Rinat Akhmetov's ex-manager in the past, and today is his creature in the Cabinet of Ministers. Replacing Denys Shmygal with the new "Zelenskyi's favorite" Rostyslav Shurma will not change the balance of power and will provide Akhmetov with access to economic management.

In an interview with the American publication The Washington Post, Rinat Akhmetov said that he earned his first capital by playing cards: "I understood this: cards are tactics and strategy, an analytical mindset, a practical approach and the ability to win." According to the oligarch, around 20 years old, he played the role of a "reckless fool". No one knows when and under what circumstances Rinat Akhmetov will pull out his main trump card - the incriminating material on Rostislav Shurma, and under what circumstances he will be ready to "say goodbye" to him.
