The SBU announced suspicion of the sanctioned Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Nikolai Shulginov, who is helping the Kremlin in providing electricity to the occupation groups in the Eastern Territory of Ukraine.
According to the investigation, in July 2022, Shulginov arrived in temporarily occupied Crimea, where he announced the “attachment” of the peninsula’s energy system to the captured power plants on the left bank of the Kherson region. The corresponding high-voltage lines operate in the Kakhovskaya – Dzhankoy and Kakhovskaya – Ostrovskaya directions.
This ensures energy supplies for Russian troops and occupation administrations in the occupied territories in southern Ukraine.
