29.08.2023
By order of the Government, Yevhen Kramarenko was dismissed from the position of the head of the State Agency of Ukraine for Exclusion Zone Management. This decision was made at today's meeting by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
We will remind, by order of the CMU dated June 30, 2023 No. 587-r, disciplinary proceedings were initiated against Yevhen Kramarenko. On June 7, the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate appealed to the SAUEZM and the Ministry of Ecology regarding the appointment, in accordance with the order of the SAUEZM dated June 2, acting General Director of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Serhiy Martynov, who, contrary to the General Director's job description, does not have a license from SNRIU for the right to perform organizational and administrative functions related to ensuring nuclear and radiation safety. The State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate warned that if such functions are performed without the appropriate license, it will have grounds for suspending the Licenses for the right to carry out the activities of Central storage of spent nuclear fuel-1 and Central storage of spent nuclear fuel-2.
And on June 22, a deputy of the Slavutych City Council, Dmytro Stelmakh, addressed an open letter to the NSDC and the Ministry of Ecology, from which it follows that Serhii Martynov appointed his predecessor and former head of SAUEZM Serhiy Kalashnyk, who "has a rather dubious reputation, a "rich" train of corruption scandals, as his assistant and was accused under Article 265 of the Criminal Code "Illegal handling of radioactive materials" because he "managed to sell the ventilation pipe of the fourth power unit of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant".

Kramarenko headed the SAUEZM since December 29, 2021, and worked in the Agency since January 2016 in the positions of the chief specialist in the prevention and detection of corruption, as well as the head of the department of architecture, capital construction, property management, work on investment projects, and land relations. As reported by InfoAtom, at that time his wife was a beneficiary of "HASTA GROUP LTD" LLC with a statutory fund of UAH 100, which specializes in tourist services, including in the Exclusion Zone.
