From 2015 to 2016, Kiyashko served as the official assistant to the People's Deputy of the VIII convocation, self-nominated and former “Regional” – Evgeny Balitsky from Melitopol, in the dissemination of the law “On Public Service”.

368.media editorial office asks the SBU and the State Bureau of Investigation how, in the 10th month of the war against the occupiers, Kiyashko occupies a responsible post in the area affected by the enemies without holding a special checks. Such a check should be carried out by the then head of the regional administration, Ruslan Grigorenko, but he himself fell into a number of corruption scandals, and after the start of the invasion, he lost his position.
It is also necessary to check the connections of Kiyashko and her entourage with the people's deputy-traitor Balitsky and the FSB. Also, the NAPC needs to check the real state of the official and her declaration. We also appeal to everyone who suffered from the activities of an official, in order to send us materials about his life.
