The Finance Ministry's basic scenario forecasts Energoatom's capital expenditures at about UAH 59 billion per year during 2025-2028."On Mindich's tapes, new oligarchs admit that kickbacks on contracts amount to 10-15 percent of the estimate. If we take the minimum and count only capital expenditures and not operating ones (which are many times higher, and from which they also steal), 10% kickbacks are 6 billion hryvnias PER YEAR."Is that a lot or a little? This is almost three times more than the Prytula Charitable Foundation, one of the largest in the country, collected last year. Therefore, when Prytula says that he should be given those unfortunate few hundred thousand dollars that you saw yesterday in the confiscated bags of "Mindichs/Halushchenkos", he is being very modest. Because if not the confiscated pennies, but all 6 billion that powerful guys stole, were given to the needs of the army, Prytula would be multiplied by three! As of September 2025, there were more than 130,000 veterans with disabilities due to the war in Ukraine. If the "Mindichs" had not stolen this money, but given it to the soldiers who defended their asses at the front and lost their health, it would have been enough to send all 130,000 disabled servicemen for 10 days to Greece to good hotels with travel and breakfast.But this money will not go to the military. It will go to elections, to houses in Koncha-Zaspa, to golden toilets and Gelandewagens with security."Mindichs" must be stopped not because someone likes or dislikes them, but because they steal from a soldier, a child, an elderly pensioner who lost her home during the occupation.In essence, they are fighting against us on Putin's side. And therefore we must stop them just like the Russian army, if we want to survive.*Published with the author's style preservedSourceAbout the author: Serhii Marchenko, labor market expert, blogger, serviceman.The editorial board does not always share the opinions expressed by the authors of the blogs.
