An agent detained by the SBU attempted to persuade Ukraine's intelligence services to commit treason
The SBU’s Counterintelligence Directorate, with the assistance of the Prosecutor General, detained Stanislav Dyaminov, an agent of the Russian special services (head of Ukrenergomontazh Holding LLC), who attempted to organize unofficial negotiations between the intelligence services of Ukraine and Russia regarding the terms of a “peace agreement” and lobbied for his appointment to a leadership position in Ukraine’s energy sector.
The agent coordinated his proposals directly with the leadership of Russian military intelligence (better known as the GRU) and hoped to impose them on the Ukrainian side in the interests of the Kremlin.
Dyaminov (a native of Kazan) is an expert in the energy sector and promoted his candidacy for a position at NAEK “Energoatom” with the support of traitor Andriy Derkach and former Chernobyl NPP director Mykhailo Umanets. His activities were coordinated by Rinat Amirov, an officer of the FSB’s 5th Directorate, and Aslanbek Aktemirov, a representative of the Russian GRU. The suspect has been charged under Part 1 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason).
His biography notes that in the 1990s, in Kharkiv, Dyanov headed the joint-stock company “Stank,” which implemented tolling schemes to supply Russian nuclear fuel to the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in exchange for aluminum from ZALK. Due to a $12 million debt to TVEL (which was later transferred to “Energoatom”) and interest from Pavlo Lazarenko, he left for Russia. In Russia, he headed the state-owned enterprise “Sredmashenergo” and founded “Energoimpex,” but in 2000 he was dismissed from the Russian Ministry of Atomic Energy for failing to fulfill his obligations to supply fuel to the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant worth 360 million rubles. The article also mentions Kharkiv native Ilya Levinson, against whom, according to the authors, no action is being taken despite allegations of business dealings with Russia.
