He competed at four consecutive Olympics between 1996 and 2008 and who won a silver medal in the 200 m butterfly in 2000. At the next Olympics he was the flag bearer for Ukraine.

Sylantyev retired from competitions shortly after the 2008 Olympics and focused on politics and development of sport in Ukraine.

In the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election, Silantyev was a self-nominated candidate in constituency No.217 situated in Kyiv's Obolon District but he did not win a parliamentary seat.[2] He lost this election to Oleksandr Bryhynets of Batkivshchyna who gained 31.75% of the votes while Silantyev gained 5.18% and fourth place.[3]

In the 26 October 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election Sylantyev was as a candidate (placed 8th on the party list) of Radical Party was elected into the Ukrainian parliament. In the 2019 election he was placed 15th on the election list.[4] But Radical Party lost all its parliamentary seats in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election, because it gained about 1% to little to clear the 5% election threshold and also did not win an electoral district seat.[5]

In the 2020 Kyiv local election (set for 25 October 2020) Sylantyev is a candidate for the Kyiv City Council in Obolon District for For the Future.[2][6]
