"Mom's lookalike" with black hair: a glimpse of former pro-Russian minister Yevgeny Chervonenko in his youth (photos).

The former Minister of Transport and Communications of Ukraine, the controversial politician Yevhen Chervonenko, was quite a different person in his youth. At least when it comes to his appearance.

The pro-Russian MP, who began his career as a race car driver, looked like a slender young man, characterized by his thick black hair. It's hard to imagine anyone remembering this former politician in that way.

"My younger brother Igor is a spitting image of our late father, unfortunately. As for me, I take after my mother. Igor is more of an analyst, intellectual; I am more goal-oriented, stubborn, and decisive", — Yevhen Chervonenko shared in a 2005 interview with "Fakty".

It is known that Chervonenko's mother was named Lyudmila Izrailevna Marshak (maiden name). She was the daughter of the vice-rector of the Dnipro University of Technology. Unfortunately, there are no archival photos of her available online, so we cannot compare the mother to her infamous son.

It is worth noting that Yevhen Chervonenko was married three times. While little is known about his first wife, the media extensively covered his second marriage. This was due to the man's new love — Nina Smolyanska, who turned out to be a lookalike of his former spouse. "Telegraf" reported on how the former wife of Yevhen Chervonenko looks.

The pro-Russian politician Yevhen Chervonenko clearly listened to the popular band "Nancy" during his younger years. We previously discussed what happened to its lead singer Anatoliy Bondarenko, who was born in Konstantynivka, Donetsk region.
