The management of the Nikolaev International Airport, destroyed at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, continues to receive significant salaries, despite the fact that the airport itself is not yet operational...
The acting director of the airport, Vladimir Berko, published his annual declaration of income and assets for 2023. According to the specified data, the official does not own any real or movable property. Since 1999, he has been using an apartment in Nikolaev with an area of 51.1 square meters. m, the owners of which are Elena and Lyudmila Berko.
Vladimir Berko is also a member of the Sapel-4 auto garage cooperative in Nikolaev, where he has the right to use two garages with a total area of 42 square meters. m.
Regarding the vehicle, he indicated that since 2008 he has been using a 2007 Chery Tiggo, the owner of which is Elena Berko. The declaration does not indicate whether Vladimir Berko has any monetary assets. At the same time, it was noted that in 2023, as director of the inactive Nikolaev airport, he received 667 thousand 135 UAH of income, which is an average of 55.5 thousand UAH per month.
