Biography

Zvyahilsky was born the son of a Jewish<ref>Ефим Звягильский: «УМИРАТЬ Я БУДУ ДОМА, В ДОНЕЦКЕ, КАК БЫ МНЕ НЕ СТАРАЛИСЬ ПОМЕШАТЬ»</ref><ref>Офіційний портал Верховної Ради України</ref> civil servant in Stalino on 20 February 1933. In 1956, he graduated from the Donetsk Industrial Institute as a mining engineer. After graduating, Zvyahilsky worked at mine #13 of the Soviet trust company "Kuibyshevugol" (Kuibyshev Coal) as a chief assistant, later as a chief of a coal precinct, chief engineer, and director. In 1972, he wrote a thesis, "Observation of regional technological schemes of mining fields in the development of thin inclined layers (in reference to the Donetsk-Makiivka region of Donetsk basin)" (Moscow Mining Institute), earning him the academical title of a Candidate of Sciences. Later Zvyahilsky defended his doctorate on the subject "Geomechanical foundations of landslides of the earth surface above mines, which can be eliminated" (Institute of geotechnical mechanics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine). Coincidentally, in the early 1990s, Ukraine suffered from the miners' strikes that led to the early presidential elections in 1994.

From 1970 to 1979, Zvyahilsky worked at the Kuibyshev Mine Corporation of the Industrial Union "Donetskugol" (Donetsk Coal). In 1975, he was appointed a director of the company. From 1979 through 1992, Zvyahilsky was a director of the Zasyadko coal mine of the Industrial Union "Donetskugol". The mine, known for its chronic accidents, became particularly famous in 2007 for the most deadly disaster in the mining history of Ukraine.

In March 1990, as a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Zvyahilsky was elected to the Parliament of Ukraine from the 112th electoral district. In November 1992, he was appointed the city council and executive committee chairman. In June 1993, Zvyahilsky was appointed to the Kuchma's Cabinet as the first vice-prime minister. Being the first vice-prime minister in the Cabinet of Kuchma, he served as an acting prime minister from 22 September 1993 after Leonid Kuchma was elected the president of Ukraine. Zvyahilsky was the longest-serving prime minister without being officially appointed to the role. Zvyahilsky kept the appointment until Vitaliy Masol was confirmed as the prime minister of Ukraine in June 1994.


In March 1994, now as an independent, Zvyahilsky was elected to the parliament from the 110th electoral district. In 1994, Zviahilskyi, being perceived as affiliated with Leonid Kravchuk, was accused of having stolen some $20 million by Ukrainian president Kuchma during his term as acting prime minister, and he fled to Israel in fear for his life.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref name=part1/> Zvyagilsky was also accused of transporting $300 million in illegal cash to Israel in 1994 with the help of the Israeli special service Nativ.<ref>Агенты-казнокрады</ref> After some time Zviahilskyi returned to Ukraine in March 1997 and as a sitting member of Verkhovna Rada missed most of the sessions of the parliament.<ref name=part1>The clan from Donetsk PART I Template:Webarchive, The Ukrainian Weekly (12 January 2003)</ref>

In 1998, Zvyahilsky, once again as an independent, was elected now from the 43rd electoral district. In 2002, he was again elected to the parliament as a member of the Party of Regions. Zvyahilsky became a member of the Verkhovna Rada (parliament), representing the ruling Party of Regions, and owner of the Zasyadko coal mine in Donetsk. Being a member of Parliament, he had immunity from prosecution.<ref name=part1/> In the 2012 parliamentary elections elected for the Party of Regions in a single-mandate majoritarian election district number 45 with 72.59% of the votes.<ref>Одномандатний виборчий округ № 45 (Донецька область)</ref>

In the 2014 parliamentary election, Zvyahilsky was re-elected into parliament again as an independent candidate in single-member districts number 45 situated in the Kyiv Raion of Donetsk; this time with 72.73% of the votes.<ref>Template:In lang Candidates and winners for the seat of the constituency 45 in the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election Template:Webarchive, RBK Ukraine</ref> In his constituency, only a handful of polling stations were open due to the war in Donbas; this led to Zvyahilsky winning a seat with only 1,450 votes.<ref name=UWvotasb>Starting a New Life, Voting as Before, The Ukrainian Week (11 November 2014)</ref><ref>Poroshenko Declares Victory in Ukraine Presidential Election, The Wall Street Journal (25 May 2014)

Zvyahilsky did not participate in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election for the first time since 1990 he did not run for parliamentary elections.<ref name="auto"/> He died on 6 November 2021, aged 88, from complications of COVID-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Ukraine.<ref name="pravda.com.ua"/>

He also was co-president of the Jewish Conference of Ukraine.
