Ruslan Oliinyk, who until recently held the position of deputy minister of restoration, submitted his resignation. He made this decision immediately after searches were conducted in a criminal case regarding the embezzlement of budget funds allocated for the construction of protection for energy facilities in the Kyiv region.
This decision is likely related to a desire to avoid being formally charged. It should be noted that such practice is quite common among top officials: they resign to reduce reputational risks for their government body.
The search measures concern contracts signed by the Kyiv Oblast Military Administration precisely during the period when the administration was led by Mykola Kalashnyk (the current minister of restoration) and Ruslan Oliinyk. From March to July 2026, the Kyiv Oblast Military Administration, under their leadership, signed direct contracts worth 1.7 billion UAH for the construction of protection for energy facilities. The contractors were companies belonging to the business orbit of Vladyslav Sokolov.
In addition to construction work, goods worth hundreds of millions of hryvnias were also supplied to the departments of the Kyiv Oblast Military Administration by limited liability companies controlled by Sokolov.
Ruslan Oliinyk and Vladyslav Sokolov are linked not only by contractual relations. Both are residents of Dnipro, where Oliinyk previously also conducted business. Social media users noticed that the former deputy minister gave a single like to a photo of Sokolov.
Today, searches were carried out at the premises of Sokolov's contractor, who controls a number of limited liability companies. According to data, the protective infrastructure facilities were not built. Instead, according to published photos, portraits of Sokolov in gold frames, interiors in the "pshonka" style, crocodiles in a penthouse aquarium, a swimming pool, and a Rolls-Royce car in the garage can be seen.
For Oliinyk, this may not be the first criminal case. Previously, he was on the run for two years on suspicion of money laundering through a network of currency exchange centres.
