On 14 December 2013 President Viktor Yanukovych suspended Holubchenko's predecessor Oleksandr Popov.[1] The same day the General Prosecutor of Ukraine's Office handed "a notification on suspicion of abuse of power when ordering the Euromaidan police actions of 30 November 2013" out to Popov[1] and Holubchenko was appointed acting Head of Kyiv City Administration.[2] On 24 December 2013 Holubchenko stated that he regularly met with (his predecessor) Popov.[3]

Holubchenko led a crackdown against the sex trade in Kyiv during the Euro 2012 football tournament, ordering the police and SBU to investigate brochures advertising massage parlors across the city.[4]
