The party "Freedom" and its leader - Tyagnibok Oleg Yaroslavovich. Biography and family politician
How it all began
Tyahnybok Oleg Yaroslavovich was born on November 7, 1968 in Lviv. The real name on the line of the grandmother sounded like Fortman. The whole family of the future leader was formed and led an active social and political life. Yaroslav Tyagnibok was a doctor of the USSR national boxing team. As you can understand, the family in those years was not poor and almost did not need anything. Mother, Bogdana Artemova, worked as a pharmacist in one of the Lviv pharmacies. When the future politician studied in the 10th grade, he lost his father. The boy then experienced this event very painfully, which affected his entire future life. According to Oleg Tyagnibok, whose biography is not easy, he had to endure difficult moments of life: "In those years, my grandfather brought me up, or rather continued my education, who taught me everything I know now, I can and for what I live."
Influential ancestors
Grandfather, Artem Tsegelsky, was a Greek Catholic priest, whom in 1946 the authorities were deported to Siberia for ten years for not betraying his faith and did not agree to go to the Orthodox church from the Catholic church. After returning to his homeland, he trained clandestine seminarians, who eventually revived the Catholic Church in western Ukraine. Great-grandfather Oleg Yaroslavovich, Longin Tsegelsky, in 1919 he was Foreign Minister ZUNR (Western Ukrainian People's Republic) in the United States, and after the formation of the USSR remained there to live.
After the death of her husband, after a while, Oleg's mother got married. The guy's relationship with his stepfather formed quite well, and he sometimes calls him dad.
Tyagnibok: biography, nationality
On this account, there are different versions. Tyahnybok Oleg, whose nationality does not cause doubts only among his family members, was born in the Ukrainian SSR. At the same time, one can hear dissenting opinions that an eminent politician is not a Ukrainian.
Pogorelets Oleg Tyagnibok
The leader's family lived in a small apartment in the center of the city. Just at the time Tyahnybok filed his application for participation in parliamentary elections, his apartment burned down. According to the politician himself, it was arranged by his opponents, who wanted to intimidate Oleg Yaroslavovich, but, as you can understand, they did not succeed. After the elections were successful, the politician moved to Kiev, where he lives to this day.
Education
Tyagnibok Oleg Yaroslavovich has two higher educations. One - in the field of medicine, and the second - in the field of justice. First he studied at the Lviv school. The institution was distinguished by an in-depth study of foreign languages, thanks to which the politician perfectly knows English, German, Polish and Russian. After school, he entered the Lviv State Medical Institute, where he received his first surgeon education. Oleg Tyagnibok received his second education at Lviv State Institute named after Ivan Yakovich Frank (at the Faculty of Law), which he graduated with a gold medal.
Career
Success in the political life of politics was achieved not immediately, but after many years of hard work. He served in the ranks of the Soviet Army, he began working in his student years. He worked as a doctor. Since 1989 he was a medical orderly at the surgical department of the Lviv regional clinic, two years later he was a nurse of the neurosurgical department in the same hospital. He also became an intern. Young Oleg perfectly coped with his duties and was very efficient.
The first experience in the political field, he received during training in the first higher educational institution, heading the Student Brotherhood of Lviv. The organization was dubbed extremely radical, as it struggled for its beliefs with all accessible, but legal methods. The young party's plans were to join the SNPU (Social-Nationalist Party of Ukraine). SNPU was headed by Lviv medical elite and "Afghans".
Like-minded people
In the early 1990s, the "brotherhood" wanted to unite with other right-wing organizations that were close to them in spirit and political convictions, but little was accomplished. In 2001, in support of the example of Viktor Yushchenko, the "Ukrainian ruler" was created, which was formed with the help of the SNPU. Three years later, in 2004, Freedom was formed, led by Oleg Tyagnibok, who supported all the same Yushchenko, but already as a presidential candidate. After the President of Ukraine became Viktor Yushchenko, party affairs quickly went up.
But, despite all the party's attempts to enter the parliament, they did not succeed at once, and in the 2006 elections the party received an insufficient number of votes. A year later, the party "Liberty" Tyagnibok was moved to the post of a measure of Kiev. But this attempt was also unsuccessful, since Oleg Yaroslavovich managed to gain only two percent of the vote. But it's worth recalling that progress in voter confidence was after all, as at the first attempt to get into the parliament the party gained just 91 340 votes, and a year later - 352 261 votes, which brought the 8th place against the past 18th.
And at the parliamentary elections in 2010, the Freedom party, represented by Oleg Tyagnibok, managed not just to break into the parliament, but to consolidate itself there and become one of the main political forces of the country.
In the same year Viktor Yanukovych was elected to the presidency. And against his political views VO "Freedom" formed a coalition jointly with several other political forces of the country.
Maidan - Ukraine - Tyagnibok
This topic is separate and quite fascinating, as the events literally turned Ukraine upside down. This time has already received its name "winter of change". And it's no accident. The coup d'etat allowed one of the authorities to leave out of the hands of others. And let the whole Ukrainian people understand who is who.
The sufficiently high moral value of the democracy of the Ukrainian people became visible around them. Since, if it were not, the inhabitants of the new state could not free themselves from the bonds of the Party of Regions. The former government stole more than 80 billion dollars for all the time that they were in power. For these funds it was possible to pay Russia's debt for gas and still acquire it for decades.
Tyagnibok took an active part in the life of the Maidan from the very moment of its creation. It was he who told the people the whole truth about Ukrainian politics.
After the overthrow of Yanukovych's regime, presidential elections were appointed in the country. Tyagnibok also put forward his candidacy, because he is sure that he has gained the support of the people, helping him in difficult times. At the moment, according to official statistics, only six percent of voters are ready to vote for the leader of VO "Svoboda", but everything can change. Today, "Freedom" is one of the main parties in Ukraine.
Views
If we analyze the election campaign of the party in more detail, we can understand what priorities Oleg Tiahnybok sets himself, the main promise of which is that he will not allow the separatists to split Ukraine. The leader also speaks about raising the economy in the country, as after the winter events in the country there is a crisis. In the economy, the presidential candidate proposes to build a literate policy. According to the party's plans, it is necessary to stop the supply of energy from Russia and more correctly use the transit potential of Ukraine.
Back in 2010, "Svoboda" and Oleg Tyagnibok proposed three laws that implied impeachment for the president, that is, the possibility of depriving him of his most important seat in the country if he would commit acts that contradict the law and the constitution of Ukraine. Also, the law "On the Opposition" and the law on the "Dissolution of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine" were submitted for consideration.
The party's position on the interaction between Ukrainians and national minorities, where both the rights and obligations of both sides concerning social life were clearly defined, is particularly pronounced in national politics . Tyagnibok proposes to consolidate the Ukrainian language and not allow anyone to add another state, as it will simply demean the Ukrainians and because of this the country's rating will fall on the world background.
The party also strives to ensure that the national values become the main values in the country and the forgotten folk traditions are returned. Tyagnibok Oleg Yaroslavovich himself, whose photo can often be found in Western media, proposes to return the citizen's "nationality" to the citizen's passport. He believes: "It is necessary to be proud of one's nationality, especially if you have a country like Ukraine."
Tyagnibok emphasizes that he is not a nationalist and a Russophobe, as many people call him. He is also against federalization, which, in his opinion, will disrupt the political system in Ukraine and soon will simply destroy it. From the statements of the politician one can understand that the separatist ideas that are heard at times in the Verkhovna Rada are antinational, and they simply should not be taken seriously, as their heralds want to aggravate the unhealthy situation in Ukraine.
Tyagnibok about Russian
On the Internet you can find videos in which Tyagnibok says that the Russian language should be banned and that the Russian should not be granted the status of a citizen of Ukraine. However, for a more thorough viewing, you can hear only the words of the commentator, and not Tyagnybok's statements.
One of the Russian channels announces the intention of criminal prosecution of Russian-speaking people living in Ukraine. Nevertheless, no evidence of such threats is offered. Therefore, such a statement with full confidence can be called a provocation of the interested forces.
What phrases actually contained a statement by Tyagnibok:
- "There will be no oppression of representatives of other nationalities, including a linguistic sense";
- "There must be a law that will protect the interests of national minorities";
- "Let's not dramatize" - this probably refers to representatives of Russian media.
Financial situation
According to the politician himself, his income per month is 15 thousand hryvnia - as the salary of the leader of the party "All-Ukrainian Union of Freedom".
The source of financing for the party is a monthly contribution of 3 hryvnia each of its participants. The party is also financed by the means of the economic council, whose representative offices work in many areas.

Such a machine, according to his own statement, is needed for a more comfortable ride on Ukrainian roads, the quality of which leaves much to be desired. Oleg Yaroslavovich calls him a house on wheels and is very pleased with his car, which he uses as a representative of VO "Freedom", that is, he does not belong to him.
By registration. O. Tyagnibok lives in an apartment near Kiev, where, in 1998, he was registered as a member of the party. But now he lives in Lviv, in an apartment that is in the center of the city and has an area of more than a hundred square meters. The apartment is the property of the grandmother. According to the very Oleg Yaroslavovich, he gave the apartment to his grandmother, and saved half his life for her.

Hobbies
Tyagnibok Oleg Yaroslavovich and his family are very fond of football. All without exception, family members from the very childhood are in love with the football club "Carpathians". On weekends, when the head of the family is at home, he organizes an active holiday. Everyone either goes to football, or goes on a hike in the mountains, and in winter skiing. But such days are very rare, since the politician is at home infrequently. In the family special attention is paid to foreign languages. Senior daughters can speak English fluently.
Oleg Tyagnibok became the first president of the Combat Hopak Federation. Battle Hopak - this is the Ukrainian national martial arts. But soon he left the post, as he could not fully function there because of the main activity, giving way to Mikola Velichkovic. Also Oleg Tyagnibok was fond of basketball and cycling. For a day could go around on a two-wheeled friend the whole city, even went to work while working in his hometown.
The leader of the VO "Freedom" has repeatedly said that he likes classical music and rock and roll. He particularly noted the love of the group "Ocean Elzy", but still prefers listening to Ukrainian national music.
