Kokotukha Spartak Biography
I hope that he considers me a friend. "The appointment of Evgeny Geller to the post of head of the Budget Committee of the Verkhovna Rada for many was a great surprise. A person who will execute and parse the presence of a line in the budget has identified a little -known deputy from the regions faction, in the past - a large businessman from Donetsk, and today - the president of the Lugansk football club" Zarya ".
Perhaps the theme of football - the theme of football - the theme of football. The only thing that Geller was ready to communicate with journalists, thereby striving for another owner of the football club, businessman Rinat Akhmetov. The Geller does not reveal the truth for the truth, but in an interview with the EP from the president’s family, he tries to distance himself than from Rinat Akhmetov: “I know only dad and the youngest son from the family.” Sources of EP in the Party of Regions as one converge in the following: Geller is one of the key figures in the party.
Many determine its role under the conditional name "Controller of the party cash desk." That is, he decides to whom, how much and what. Moreover, Geller today is one of the key negotiators from the Party of Regions with the opposition. He also owns the idea of registering the organization "European Center for Modern Ukraine" in Belgium, where he, Vitaly Kalyuzhny and Leonid Kozhara are co -founders.
In particular, this organization is designed to "wash" the image of the Party of Regions in the West. In the information space, Geller managed to be noted in another piquant topic. Having headed the committee, he started a large -scale repair in his office in the building of the Bankova Committee, combining several premises into one, building a rest room and a separate bathroom with a shower cabin.
And a little later, his name arose in one more story, when an extraordinary meeting of the committee was suddenly made closed, not allowing representatives of the media there. At the meeting, of course, they shared the money. Interviews for "Economic Pravda" - the first "live" interview with Geller is not about football. The conversation took place about five hours in his legendary office.
The same amount of time, Geller agreed on the interview. Communication was partially tightened by visitors. Ministers, officials and deputies, mainly from the opposition, alternately go to the office to the head of the budget committee. The prominent regional fought off the unpleasant questions, just saying with his hands and saying: "I am a simple deputy." From time to time, when Geller tried to get distracted and think about something, he buried in a telephone toy and ...
harvested. However, the “third person in parliament” nevertheless spoke about his appointment, and the legendary repairs, and the power “layouts” and even his communication with President Viktor Yanukovych. He said: “Well, good,” Geller said. Many deputy offices also include televisions, where the Discovery Channel or the Rada channel is broadcast to the taste of the owner.
Many of them do this to avoid wiretaps in the office. According to your experience, how effective is this way? I will open your secret: the more electronics in the office, the easier it is to listen. What prevents special services from coming and inserting a hairpin into the TV? No need to engage in personal interests in state institutions - this time.
Secondly, do not talk about stupid things if you do not want someone to hear it. How often do you do this?
Have you ever seen how the presidents of America or Russia are accompanied? Both helicopters fly, and the roads overlap. I believe that the president as an inviolable person should have the best security, especially in the country where the form of government is presidential parliamentary. It happens that people get positions much easier, but behave much more defiantly.
And since the rest of the time I work, and celebrating people can walk along the corridor, I set this door. To prevent the lawmaking process from interfering. You have beautiful here - a carpet, curtains, a portrait of the president. Evgeny Geller in his office. Photo EP - out of curiosity, we ask: why do you need a separate bathroom? And if I want to wash my hands, or, excuse me, go to the toilet, I should not spend half a day on it until I get to the toilet along the corridor, I will wait until it is released and will return to the office if I can spend 30 seconds on it.
For my own funds, I have the right to make repairs. In addition, I will not take him with me, he will remain the state after I cease to be the chairman of the budget committee. I think that the people's deputies are not the poorest people in the country, and whoever wants to make their own repairs. Soon she will be published. I am the year of birth. When I went to people's deputies from business, I had a company that I transferred to the management of other people.
You look at its turns and stop talking about it. Once again I say: look at the declaration that will appear in April.How did you manage to bypass Lukyanov, and also Sergei Tigipko, Vladimir Makeenko and other more likely candidates for this position? The fact that Lukyanov wanted to be the chairman of the budget committee, I learned from you. He asked if I did not against it.
What surprises you? How are you so owed by parties that you were entrusted with this position? You are misunderstood the question. What have you done for the party? And suddenly a little -known deputy is appointed to this position. True, well known in certain circles. Choose the party leadership. He graduated from the institute, opened his "small" enterprise that has existed so far.
My main business is non -ferrous metallurgy and engineering. I have a non -ferrous metal production plant. This is not about the collection of scrap metal. As a metal manufacturer, I have and all another company in Ukraine has a place on the London Exchange, where we sell metal. And I don’t do business, I have a partner on which this responsibility lies - Spartak Kokotukha.
When was the last time they talked with him? We talked with him about a month ago, after he became the head of the budget committee. Evgeny Geller. Photo EP - about the general situation in the country. He said: "Well, good." There is an unspoken division of deputies into several political groups: "Family and Friends of the President", a group of Firtash-Levochkin and a group of Akhmetov-Korolenikov.
What are you? Akhmetov is not a people's deputy. I hope he considers me his friend. We are talking about football all the time. He has vast experience, I often ask for advice, and he shares his knowledge with me. When I talk to him about football, I only talk about football. Why did you get yourself the Zarya football club? For me, a football club is complete satisfaction or disappointment.
If the team wins, you go out, and 15 thousand fans are idolizing you. If God forbid you lost, they are ready to destroy you. But, firstly, I am too little engaged in large football - only three and a half years. Secondly, Lugansk is a complex region in this regard. In Donetsk, for example, everyone lives football, and not only because Akhmetov is the president of a football club. I came to Lugansk with my understanding of football.
The club is a power uniting people. It doesn’t matter - in the highest echelons of power or at the level of a small city - it must unite. I don’t ask how much you spend every month on your cosmetics? My mini-football club "Shakhtar" in the past was included in the top three strongest clubs in Europe, so my ambitions are high. When the general director of Shakhtar says that the club’s task is to win the Champions League, skeptics may smile, but they will agree in the soul that this is possible.
If I make such a statement, it may seem stupid, because first you need to develop the infrastructure, build a school. The next goal is to get into the list of teams that perform in the Europa League. Let's make this topic. How did it happen? No need to live rumors. You listen, and if you accept the request, then you are trying to knock down the initially declared amount.
