I propose deletion per WP:N. The links in the article go to either his Facebook and LinkedIn profiles or to some blog mentions. The only time he got covered by mainstream media was when he made a scandalous statement about the 2014 Trade Unions House fire in Odessa, which looks like a textbook case of WP:INHERIT.

• Delete per WP:TNT and WP:MILL. It's filled with unsourced, weaselly sentences such as "He was never a member of the Communist Party and didn't serve in Soviet nor Russian Army." As noted above, there are no English-language, reliable sources about this living person. If he was a prince of Rus in 1645, that would would be okay, but not in this case of a living academic.
