Most people's deputies pursue their own goals and always achieve them, the question of success is only in money and their quantity. Rabinovich Vadim is a bird with bright plumage, the manners of a businessman from the 90s and claims to the Ukrainian hetmanship.

From birth to first landing

Father is a military man, mother is a local therapist. In the family, besides Vadim, there were three more children. After leaving school, in 1970, he entered the KhAI (Kharkov Road Institute), from where he was expelled from the fourth year with a scandal. According to Rabinovich himself, the reason for the expulsion from the walls educational institution served as a crossword puzzle with a touch of political satire on China and condoms. In addition to being expelled from the university, he was deprived of membership in the Komsomol and went to serve in the armed forces.

Having paid tribute to his homeland in the army, Vadim Rabinovich returned to his native city, where he got a job in the construction department as a foreman. In January 1980, he was accused of stealing three rolls of wallpaper, for which he received his first term. The matter did not reach the prison, the entire term of imprisonment cost nine months in the penal colony, from where he was released due to the lack of corpus delicti.

Underground guild worker

Having tasted life in prison dungeons and having been released with a clear conscience, a new Rabinovich Vadim Zinovievich appeared before the world. His biography began to be decorated with new ways of underground enrichment. He realized that if he gets caught, then for larger-scale "merits" in order to have something to pay off. In Soviet times, private business was a profitable and dangerous occupation, as the authors of the Golden Calf warned citizens about. Deciding not to focus on one thing in the workshop shock work, Rabinovich in 1980 began the production of wooden doors, crystal dishes, calendars. He managed to hide illegal business from the state until 1982, when he was caught and sentenced to 14 years in prison.

Rabinovich Vadim Zinovievich did not feel guilty for himself and did not recognize his actions as criminal. In connection with this behavior, the guards of Themis placed him in a psychiatric hospital for a year, where, according to him, he successfully feigned insanity. I had to sit in a prison cell for eight years until 1990. The prisoner from business was released by decree of Gorbachev.

Imprisonment brought Rabinovich the first political dividends. His release was actively advocated by the Jewish community of Israel, bringing him fame as a dissident and the aura of a martyr of the regime.

Cosmopolitan businessman

A few days after receiving his freedom, Rabinovich Vadim, together with the former head of his prison department, creates the private enterprise Pinta. A community of friends of interest tried to conquer the Ukrainian market with Italian furniture and British decorative cosmetics. The business lasted from 1991 until the beginning of 1992, after which commercial activity acquired an international dimension. Rolled metal and its export supplies became the sphere of interest.

Some sources claim that during the same period, V. Rabinovich had a hand and money in creating the first non-commercial TV channel in Kharkov, and also took part in the election campaign of Vyacheslav Chernovol, who ran for the presidency.

In 1993, Rabinovich Vadim falls under the wing of the then current President of Ukraine L. Kuchma and becomes a representative of the Nordex company. The company was engaged in exclusive supplies to Ukraine of oil products from Russian Federation, calculations were made in Ukrainian goods. Involvement in Nordex was the reason for Rabinovich's refusal to enter the United States, since the company was associated with the "Russian mafia".

Since 1995 Rabinovich V.Z. transfers its main commercial activity outside Ukraine and opens in Geneva, first the company "Osteks AG", and then the RC-Group. Becomes a co-founder of the 1 + 1 TV channel, which is gaining popularity in a short time.

As an Israeli citizen, he initiates the creation of the Ukraine-Israel Chamber of Commerce and Industry. In the same year, he sold his shares in the 1 + 1 channel.

media mogul

Having appreciated all the advantages of the information business, Rabinovich Vadim in 1998 formed his own media tool. The Ukrainian company receives the name of the publishing house "CN - Capital News". In 2000, he created the following project, now international - Media International Group, which included:

Publishing House "CN - Capital News";
printed newspaper "MIG - News", Ukraine;
print newspaper MIGnews, Israel;
weekly edition "Business week".

In 2003, the case was replenished with the daily “New Russian word"(USA), and in 2005 the media group includes the publication "Moscow News" (Russia). AT different years the company acquired several radio stations, television channels, publications and Internet resources.

From 2001 to 2014, Rabinovich Vadim Zinovievich owned part of the shares of the Jewish TV channel Jewish News One (JN1). In 2013, he created the news television project News Network, where he is an investor and owner in one person.

In 2014, Rabinovich made another rotation of information assets and sold the News One TV channel and the MIGnews.com.ua portal to Yevgeny Muraev (Ukrainian businessman and politician). In the same year, he opened a new radio station with a "modest" name "Rabinovich FM".

Presidential candidate and parliamentarian

After the 2014 coup, he put forward his candidacy for the presidency of Ukraine in early elections. To get the opportunity to participate in the race, he created the party "Center". To the surprise of many experts and permanent "residents" of the Ukrainian parliament, he won a significant number of votes (2.5%), overtaking the leaders of the Maidan, such as Yarosh, Tyahnybok and others, who were at the peak of their popularity. He had the highest rating in the eastern regions of Ukraine, where he received almost 5% of the vote.

In the parliamentary elections held in the same year, he was elected to the Verkhovna Rada from the Opposition Bloc, the Center Party joined the opposition coalition. In 2016, with a scandal, he announced his withdrawal from the faction. In an interview with one of the local publications, he said that the opposition is not fulfilling its functions: “I believe that today we need to move on to a more radical opposition that will explain to people what is really happening and offer ways out of the crisis.”

Party "Life"

On July 26, 2016, two former members of the Opposition Bloc party, Vadim Rabinovich and Yevgeny Muraev, opened the first congress of the Ukrainian Life Party they created. According to Rabinovich, they simply renamed the Center party, as he wrote on the page in social network: "I went to the congress of the party, which was renamed yesterday and received a new name - the political party" Life ". This is the majority. Everyone voted for life, normal human life."

The new political project has no program, but a centre-left orientation has been announced. One of the leaders of the party, Yevgeny Muraev, commented on the lack of a coherent program: “Vadim Rabinovich and I decided to do what any caring person does: take it and do it. Do dozens, hundreds of political projects did not have normal programs? We will write it. You can not start any business without a normal project. Especially if this is a project of a common house, where everyone should live comfortably and warmly.

Family status

Vadim Rabinovich married only once, his wife's name is Irina Igorevna. The family has three children: two sons and a daughter. Despite all the shocking and openness of the people's deputy himself, almost nothing is known about his personal life. This is an intrigue supported by Vadim Zinovievich Rabinovich. The family, whose photos sometimes appear in the press, is a closed topic in conversations with journalists.

A businessman, an Israeli citizen and a people's deputy of Ukraine - his name and actions are popular with a certain part of the people. The ability to tell and promise what the voter wants to hear is a trump card that Vadim Zinovievich Rabinovich skillfully plays. Biography, children and business create a positive image of the "people's hero".

Seen in damaging relationships?

The name of Vadim Rabinovich is associated with an arms scandal that broke out in 2002 at the suggestion of Der Spiegel magazine. The publication reported on the supply of 150-200 tanks by Vadim Rabinovich for the Taliban terrorist organization. He denied this information. “If something is lost in Ukraine, stolen or disappeared, Rabinovich is to blame,” he said in an interview with the Ukrainian Pravda newspaper. These were the only "facts" in their defense.

According to many Ukrainian media, Rabinovich is the main sponsor of the scandalous FEMEN movement. For what purpose he needed it - is not clear.

How Rabinovich assessed Putin's new interview for NBC: "Behavior of an underdeveloped fifth grader" (VIDEO)

Vladimir Putin answered questions from NBC journalist Megyn Kelly. The interview was recorded on March 1 in the Kremlin and on March 2 in Kaliningrad. Putin said that the United States is interfering in Russian elections. The economist and blogger spoke negatively about the behavior of the head of the aggressor country, saying that "his place is in The Hague."

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with the NBC television channel that he did not know why America was so angry with Russia with its sanctions. "Putin gave an interview to NBC.

I looked at him in disgust. What can I say? Surprisingly, I can't say anything beyond what Roger Lena Hawley wrote under one of my posts as a comment. I have 100% the same impression," wrote Rabinovich.

"The interview in the original is shockingly implausible. The conditional president of a huge piece of land" sculpts a hunchback "in front of the cameras. On the one hand, he looks like a naughty schoolboy in the director's office, on the other hand, he behaves like a schoolboy, behind whom stands a dad, or a bandit, or a party boss. But, in any case, the behavior of an underdeveloped fifth grader, "he quotes.

"Why do you think the Russian authorities, including me, gave someone permission to do this?" - Putin said to the presenter's question about Russia's interference in the presidential elections in the United States of America in 2016.

The presenter clarified the opinion of the head of the Russian Federation about 13 Russians who were accused of interfering in the US presidential election. "So what if they are Russians? There are 146 million Russians, so what? I don't care. They don't represent the interests of Russian state", Putin said.

Putin even noted that they could belong to other ethnic groups.

"Perhaps these are Ukrainians, Tatars, Jews, only with Russian citizenship. Maybe they have dual citizenship or maybe a green card. Maybe the Americans paid them for this work. Do you know? I don't know," he said.

Asked if he was concerned that Russian citizens were attacking American democracy, Putin replied that he saw no evidence that the alleged interference violated Russian law. “We in Russia cannot prosecute anyone if they have not violated Russian law.

Candidates for President of Ukraine: Vadym Rabinovich

Give us a formal request and we'll look at it," he said.

US intelligence agencies and many Western analysts have said the Russian intervention was ordered by the Kremlin, but Putin denies this.

“Can anyone really believe that Russia, thousands of kilometers away … influenced the outcome of the election? Isn’t that funny even for you? We don’t see what goal we would achieve by intervening. There is no goal,” he said

In the same interview, Putin came up with a new tactic of making excuses for Russia's meddling in US elections. “Now imagine for a moment that we don’t know anything about Putin, nothing at all, except for this interview. We don’t know what he did for the last 18 years, or the last 30 years, we don’t know him at all, but we see only this interview. And then let's ask ourselves the question: "Is he fit to be the president?" - Is he fit to hold the position of president? Without knowing anything about Putin, only based on this interview, the answer is obvious. And knowing everything about Putin, it is obvious another answer is his place in The Hague," Rabinovich summed up.
