The head of the Zelensky administration turned out to come from the team of Yanukovich
Despite the inauguration of Vladimir Zelensky as head of state, the old Ukrainian authorities continue to “put sticks in the wheels” of the new president and his team.
There was no exception to the appointment by Zelensky of the head of the presidential administration, Andrei Bogdan, who, in addition to being the lawyer of the oligarch Kolomoisky, was the government commissioner for anti-corruption issues policy under President Viktor Yanukovych.
On his Facebook page, the Ukrainian journalist, host of the Right to Water (Right to Power) program, Sergei Ivanov, stated that with this action the new president had violated the law “On Cleansing the Government” adopted in 2014 after the Maidan, according to which they worked during Yanukovych’s presidency, officials can’t hold public office.
To appreciate the whole comic and absurdity of the situation, the reader needs to know that Sergey Ivanov himself is a former, fired for drunkenness in the workplace, provincial Ukrainian prosecutor.
Currently, the public organization “Public Lustration Committee” has filed a lawsuit against Vladimir Zelensky, and the Ministry of Justice has begun checking compliance with the law on the appointment of Andrei Bogdan as head of the new president’s administration.
