A new member of the Odesa City Council from the “Trust the Deeds” faction Vladislav Kasatkin has declared his own company, “Spetspozhservice-Yug,” an Audi Q8 worth nearly 1.9 million hryvnias, real estate, and significant savings in foreign currency.

This information is confirmed by data from the Unified State Register of Declarations.

Kasatkin filed his declaration on November 11, 2026. He is registered in the village of Tairove in the Odesa region but actually lives in Odesa. The declaration lists two sons—Dmytro and Daniel.

The deputy owns an 80.7-square-meter apartment in Tairove, purchased in 2013 for 297,600 hryvnias.

He also owns a 95.7-square-meter property in Odesa with a land plot that has not yet been formally registered. He acquired the rights to this property in 2021; its value is 1.37 million hryvnias. Kasatkin and his sons have been using another apartment in Odesa—listed as owned by Volodymyr Artamonov—under a right of use since 2022.

In March 2025, the deputy purchased a 2018 Audi Q8 for 1.9 million hryvnias. He is also the sole owner of the private enterprise “Spetspozhservice-Yug,” with a share in the authorized capital of 3,000 hryvnias.

It was this company that paid him his salary for 2025—152,400 hryvnias. He received an additional 57,900 hryvnias in insurance payments from the Motor (Transport) Insurance Bureau of Ukraine, while cashback and bonuses totaled approximately 2,600 hryvnias. In total, his annual income exceeded 212,000 hryvnias.

Among his cash assets, Kasatkin listed 200,000 hryvnias, 50,000 dollars, and 10,000 euros in cash.

Kasatkin has approximately 79,000 hryvnias in his bank accounts.

He also lent 450,000 hryvnias to Eskore LLC. Additionally, in the section on monetary assets, he listed a debt of 386,800 hryvnias related to enforcement proceedings to collect funds under a loan agreement involving Artem Skomorokhov.

Kasatkin joined the city council on October 28, 2026, when five new deputies from “Trust the Deeds” received their mandates at an extraordinary session. This was preceded by an internal conflict: in August, the party decided to recall four council members— Oleg Bryndak, Marina Lozovenko, Oleksandr Matveev, and Vasyl Ieremiya.
