Mon, 30 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

What Happened#

On March 30, 2026, the Public Integrity Council approved a negative integrity conclusion on Maksym Mykolaiovych Hloba (Глоба Максим Миколайович), a candidate for a position at Appellate court. The conclusion was adopted by 12 of 19 members, including Mariia Krasnenko.

The PIC cited Hloba’s multiple trips to the Russian Federation during the period from December 25, 2013, to June 13, 2014 — which encompasses the Russian occupation of Crimea — as unjustified travel without urgent necessity. By treating these trips as integrity violations, the PIC implicitly recognized Russian jurisdiction over occupied Crimea, since the candidate explained he crossed through Crimea and the PIC evaluated this as travel to ‘RF territory’ rather than Ukrainian territory under illegal occupation.

On March 22, 2026, the Public Integrity Council approved a negative integrity conclusion on Zinchenko Oleksii Volodymyrovych (Зінченко Олексій Володимирович), a candidate for a position at Appellate court. The conclusion was adopted by 12 of 19 members, including Mariia Krasnenko.

The PIC directly stated that the candidate made trips in August-September 2014 to temporarily occupied Crimea and twice to Russia (Belgorod Oblast), with some trips involving family members, and this was recognized as grounds for non-compliance. By treating travel to Crimea as equivalent to travel to the aggressor state Russia and flagging it as an integrity risk, the PIC operationally recognizes Russian jurisdiction over the peninsula.

What Happened#

On March 16, 2026, the Public Integrity Council approved a negative integrity conclusion on Tetiana Dmytrivna Shevyrina (Шевиріна Тетяна Дмитрівна), a candidate for a position at Ochakiv City-District Court of Mykolaiv Oblast. The conclusion was adopted by 12 of 19 members, including Mariia Krasnenko.

The PIC explicitly treated the candidate’s family connections to occupied Crimea and multiple post-occupation trips by family members as integrity violations equivalent to connections with the Russian Federation. By categorizing travel to Crimea as visiting ’temporarily occupied territories’ and ’territory of the aggressor state’ alongside Russia proper, the PIC operationally recognized Russian jurisdiction over Ukrainian Crimea, making these family ties and trips grounds for negative integrity assessment.

The conclusion was adopted by 12 of 19 members, including Mariia Krasnenko.

The PIC cited the candidate’s large loan guarantee as future inheritance of property located on temporarily occupied Crimean territory, treating this Crimea-based property as a source of legal uncertainty and grounds for integrity concerns. By treating property inheritance in Crimea as inherently problematic and uncertain, the PIC implicitly recognizes that Russian occupation has created a separate legal jurisdiction over the peninsula.

The PIC treated occupied Donetsk as territory equivalent to the Russian Federation in terms of integrity risks, citing the candidate’s parents’ residence there and family connections to occupied territories as grounds for negative conclusion. By equating occupied Ukrainian territory with foreign state territory in terms of security risks and jurisdictional concerns, the PIC implicitly recognized de facto Russian control over these territories.

The PIC cited the candidate and his wife’s multiple post-occupation trips to temporarily occupied Luhansk (via Russia) in 2015-2016, along with family ties on occupied territory, as integrity risks that could expose him to influence by Russian intelligence services. By treating connections to occupied Ukrainian territory as security threats equivalent to those posed by Russia proper, the PIC implicitly recognized Russian jurisdiction over these territories.

The PIC treated the candidate’s three post-occupation crossings of the administrative border with temporarily occupied Crimea, combined with his close family members remaining in Sevastopol, as integrity risks warranting a negative conclusion. By classifying these connections to Ukrainian territory under occupation as equivalent to risks from the Russian Federation, the PIC operationally recognized Russian jurisdiction over Crimea.

The PIC treated the candidate’s repeated post-occupation trips to Crimea and possession of an apartment there as integrity violations, questioning his lack of ‘urgent need’ for such visits.

The PIC cited the candidate’s three trips to occupied Crimea in 2016 and undisclosed property in Crimea (son’s apartment in Partenit) as primary grounds for negative integrity conclusion. By treating these connections to Crimea as integrity violations equivalent to collaboration with the aggressor state, the PIC operationally recognized Russian jurisdiction over the peninsula rather than treating Crimea as occupied Ukrainian territory.

The PIC flagged the candidate’s June 2014 visit to occupied Crimea with her family and her family’s inheritance of property in Feodosia, Crimea. While explicitly stating these facts were not grounds for a negative conclusion, the PIC’s treatment of Crimea connections as integrity risks requiring additional scrutiny operationally recognizes Russian jurisdiction over the peninsula.
