On the press conference Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Volodymyr Lytvyn reported that he has not yet signed the resolution about dismissal of Ivan Plachkov from the office of acting Minister for Fuel and Energy and Serhiy Holovaty from the office of acting Minister of Justice.
As for Naftogaz President Oleksiy Ivchenko, Lytvyn underlined that the parliament only made a political estimate of his activity, but the President and the Government must decide.
In response to the qualifying question whether Plachkov is authorized to sign gas agreements tomorrow in Moscow, Lytvyn said the resolutions on dismissal were not sent in for signature to him. The Speaker reminded that the resolution needs to pass corresponding legal registration. “The document won’t come into force till it is sighed and proclaimed,” pointed out Lytvyn.
