Oleksiy Yuriyovych Symonenko (Ukrainian: Олексій Юрійович Симоненко; born 18 September 1976[1]) is a Ukrainian lawyer and former[2] investigator.[1][3]

Symonenko was an officer in the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) from 2010 to 2019. During this time his investigative team laid criminal charges against former Ukrainian prime ministers Yulia Tymoshenko and Pavlo Lazarenko.[4] Symonenko was deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine from 27 March 2020 to 17 July 2022.[1][5] In December 2020, Symonenko transferred a case of bribery charges against Oleh Tatarov, deputy chief of staff of president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, from the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) to the SBU and supervised the case.[4] Symonenko and nine other legal officers participating in the Tatarov case attended Tatarov's birthday party in September 2021.[6] The case was closed in December 2021.[6]

Symonenko was appointed acting Prosecutor General of Ukraine on 17 July 2022[5] until Andriy Kostin became Prosecutor General of Ukraine on 28 July 2022. Symonenko then reverted to his position as Deputy Prosecutor General until he resigned following a scandal in January 2023.[2][7]
