Politics has taken over our lives, we are following the biggest scandals and experiencing the upheavals that are taking place in the country. However, we learn more about what is happening from the lips of public figures who are public people. Politicians position themselves in different ways: someone is ready to freely express their opinion, while others, on the contrary, remain in the shadows. But it is precisely those figures who are constantly distinguished by extraordinary actions that attract everyone's attention. So the Ukrainian deputy Oleg Lyashko is a bright representative of the radical movement, which does not cease to amaze the public with very extraordinary acts and statements. The attitude to his personality and activity is very controversial, despite this, the deputy boldly expresses his thoughts.
Childhood and youth
Oleg Lyashko was born on December 3, 1972 in the city of Chernigov. Unfortunately, the politician’s childhood can hardly be called happy: after a divorce from his father, his mother (Nadezhda) could not raise her son on her own. At about the age of two, Oleg ended up in a boarding school; he had to change three such institutions: Yablunovsky, Komarovsky and Borzyansky (from whom he “graduated”).
Immediately after school, he entered vocational school, where he mastered the specialty of a tractor driver. Lack of personal funds forced the future speaker to earn money as a shepherd. In the early 90s, he moved to live in Kiev. In 1998 he graduated from Kharkov State Pedagogical University named after Grigory Skovoroda, mastered the specialty of a lawyer. Note that already in the late 80s he was seriously interested in journalism, it was this occupation that influenced his whole life. The deputy himself stated that this "school" taught him to withstand difficulties and withstand any pressure.
Personal life of an ambitious “loner”
Oddly enough, but a relaxed and direct politician always hid from the public the details of his personal life. He never talked about either parents or lovers. Therefore, the publication of his chosen one became a real sensation for journalists! It turns out that a famous bachelor has been happily married for more than 10 years. Sairanen Lyashko met his chosen one Rosita very peculiarly - he managed to quarrel with her, shouted and made sharp remarks. But, as it turned out, so the politician courted, invited the girl for a ride on horseback. However, Rosita did not appreciate the shocking Oleg and gave someone else's phone.
But the lover did not give up, he found the girl and they had an affair. Now they are jointly raising their 11-year-old daughter, Vladislav. The common-law spouse says that Oleg is a very caring father, treats his daughter very well and tries to devote to her every free minute. The deputy has a rather quick-tempered disposition, which leads to frequent disagreements in the family. However, Rosita believes that it is necessary to accept her husband as he is. Sometimes they leave for a while, until passions subside, but still the feelings are stronger.
Explicit leadership qualities, passion for the profession, cool temper and even choleric character - that’s Oleg Lyashko. The biography, the family of this extraordinary person remains under the “seven locks”, apparently, this is how the politician tries to protect himself from public interference in his personal life.
Journalist career
Oleg Lyashko, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, began his career as a journalist in the 80s. He wrote for the local regional newspaper Communist Labor, where he was noticed and appreciated by radio correspondent A. Turkenin. It was he who gave the “ticket to life” to the future politician. On his recommendation, Lyashko began an internship at Radio Liberty (1990). And already from 1990 to 1992, Oleg served as a correspondent for the newspaper Young Guard in the capital of Ukraine.
From 1992 to 1995 he was editor of the newspaper "Commercial News", which belonged to the Ministry of Foreign Economic Relations. The famous speaker climbed the career ladder very quickly and already from 1995 to 1996 became the editor-in-chief of the Politics app (the newspaper Pravda Ukrainy). For almost 6 years he served as executive editor of the publication "Freedom". Oleg Lyashko himself has always highly praised his achievements in the field of journalism. He stated that he was able to withstand the strongest pressure from both the authorities and interested "powerful" people. Moreover, he was never afraid to defend his point of view and cover real events.
Politics
After graduating from the Faculty of Law (1998), Lyashko ran for the first time in the Verkhovna Rada in Chernigov District No. 209, but unexpectedly withdrew from the pre-election “race”. Already in 2002, he tried to get into the legislature in the metropolitan district No. 217, but got only 3rd place. On the third attempt, in 2006 he was elected to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine according to the list of BYuT faction (No. 26). There is an opinion that Lyashko got into this deputy group at the suggestion of Oleksandr Turchynov (at that moment the acting President of Ukraine), but Tymoshenko was against such an “infusion”.
In 2007, early parliamentary elections took place in the state, at which the politician received the deputy mandate of the Bloc of Y. Tymoshenko. Oleg Lyashko, whose photo you can see in the article, was expelled from the BYuT faction in 2010. According to official reports, the reason for this event was the cooperation of the deputy with the majority coalition.
The radical party is an important milestone in life
In 2010, in the city of Nikolaev, the Ukrainian Radical Democratic Party was created. At the time of its foundation, V. Telipko headed it, and on August 8, 2011, non-factional deputy O. Lyashko was elected the leader. Then the association received a new name - the radical party of Oleg Lyashko. In 2012, the deputy "went" to the polls from No. 208 of the majority district. It is worth noting that according to the results of the 2012 parliamentary elections, the party received the support of only 1.08% of voters, and a 5% barrier was overcome only in the deputy’s homeland in the Chernihiv region (almost 11%). But in the Verkhovna Rada of the VII convocation, the radical current was represented only by its leader. In March 2014, O. Lyashko was nominated by his party for the role of candidate for President of Ukraine for elections in May 2014.
Theses of radical unification
The party of Oleg Lyashko positions itself as an association of patriots who require a radical change in the political course in line with the comprehensive development of Ukraine. “It is the radical approach that guarantees quick results and a qualitatively new approach both in the fight against corruption and in increasing social guarantees in society as a whole, ” O. Lyashko says. The main points of the party:

Leader Hobbies
Even before his career as a politician, Oleg was a passionate player and a gambler. He personally declared his addiction to slot machines. However, he stated that this occupation was long over. The deputy is glad that he managed to "stop" in time. Now he enthusiastically collects old coins from different countries, collects various models of glasses and loves to indulge in elegant and expensive ties.
