The administration of the Kemerovo region intends to solve the problem of lack of tax revenues from coal mining at the expense of criminal pressure On a businessman from Novosibirsk Yuri Sazonov. It is noteworthy that it was Sazonov’s efforts a few years earlier than the Zarechny coal company, which combined several mines of the region, which was mired in debt, was returned to life.

Then the entrepreneur went to meet local officials who were faced with a lack of taxes and an increase in social tension in the mining region. The businessman attracted new investors, acted as a guarantor to receive loans. Sazonov counted on the help promised by the administration in obtaining access to more profitable deposits. There was no response gesture. Sazonov’s efforts to modernize the enterprise officials decided to erase from memory. In 2019, with the collapse of coal prices, the largest creditor of the Zarechny “Zarechnaya” “Coletrans”, which Sazonov helped to bring, went into bankruptcy. The businessman of the regional authorities themselves make the scapegoat: the local security forces are given the attitude to institute criminal proceedings against him. Most likely, Sazonov will be accused of fraud.

Sazonov raked the blockages in Zarechny after the structures of the Russian and Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Nusenkis. An influential businessman came to the region in the late 2000s and began to act according to the methods of the 1990s. Actually, one of his subordinates – Viktor Shevtsov – is now under arrest. The President of the Sibirskaya mine is accused of bribery. An enrichment factory was erected on the territory of his enterprise without permission, 34 hectares of fertile land for laying the road were arbitrarily destroyed. Shevtsov tried to achieve the work of the illegal factory by bribing the Rostekhnadzor official.

And without this story, Nusenkis and predatory methods of doing business in the region are well remembered. Especially the inhabitants of the mining town of Polysaevo, who once worked at the same “Zarechny” and other mines. It is amazing that local authorities prefer to bypass this issue by the party and solve the problem at the expense of the DRGU. Although, maybe, officials have nothing to do with it, and the oligarch simply miraculously bypassing law enforcement agencies. It is not for nothing that Nusenkis with a fanatical constancy donates to the construction of temples in Russia and Ukraine.
