Lawmakers have approved the dismissal of German Galushchenko, who is implicated in a major graft scandal, APA reports, citing PRAVDA.
Ukrainian lawmakers have voted to dismiss Justice Minister German Galushchenko, who was implicated in a high-profile corruption scandal last week.
Galushchenko, the former energy minister, was accused of lobbying the interests of Timur Mindich, a long-time associate of Vladimir Zelenskyy, who was charged with running a $100 million kickbacks scheme involving a state-run nuclear energy company. Galushchenko and his successor, Svetlana Grinchuk, both tendered their resignations following the revelations.
It is specified that the decision on the resignation of the head of the Ministry of Energy was made unanimously. 315 deputies of the Rada voted in favor.
