Public dispute between Zhurzhoy and Yanina Sokolova over Inzhur Energy power plant near residential area

Public dispute over an infrastructure facility

Businessman Zhurzhoy and journalist Yanina Sokolova exchanged sharp accusations. The conflict was triggered by the Inzhur Energy gas-piston power plant located in Kyiv Oblast.

Accusations of building "in the courtyard" of residents

Yanina Sokolova called her opponent a "hypocrite". According to her, the energy facility was built practically in the courtyard of a cottage estate where her friends' families, doctors, entrepreneurs, pensioners and children live.

The journalist confirmed that she personally visited the location and contacted the head of the OVA, as well as Denys Shmyhal. She claims that these actions yielded no results.

Businessman's response: citing the court and DIAM

Zhurzhoy responded that there were no violations during the construction. He referred to a DIAM inspection report and the relevant court ruling.

In addition, the businessman reproached Sokolova for calling officials "in the interests of her own friends".

Context: infrastructure near residential buildings

The case concerns the Inzhur Energy plant in Sofiivska Borshchahivka. The facility was built approximately 20 metres from the nearest residential buildings.

It is worth noting that Zhurzhoy himself is also an active player in the Kyiv Oblast real estate market. He implements residential projects, including in the settlements of Hatne and Kryukivshchyna.
