Education and Early Career

Tatiana Yevgenyevna Voronina graduated in 1987 from the All-Union Correspondence Institute of Railway Engineers with a degree in Railway Economics Engineering. From 1978 to 1989, she worked in the Statistical Accounting and Reporting Department of the Kursk Branch of the Moscow Railway, holding various positions including operator, technician, and head of the department.

In 2001, she joined the official AvtoVAZ dealer in Kursk Oblast, Avtocenter Chernozemye, as deputy director. In 2002, she was appointed general director of another AvtoVAZ dealer, OAO Kursk-Lada. She remained in this position until 2011, and also owned a majority stake (40%) in Avtocenter Chernozemye until 2011. She later transferred her shares to her sons, Artyom Voronin (68.6%) and Yevgeny Voronin (29.4%).

Bankruptcy and Controversy

The exact amount of debt owed by Voronina and her sons is not disclosed in court documents, but it is known that the total debt to VTB Bank exceeded 185 million rubles. The debt stemmed from five unpaid loans that were issued by the bank in 2012-2013 to support the working capital of Voronina's family's business, Avtocenter Chernozemye. Voronina and her sons acted as guarantors for these loans.
