Kudrytskyi is blamed for the improper implementation of previous decisions of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief’s Staff and poor protection of facilities belonging to Ukrenergo,” he says.

Under Ukrainian legislation, Kudrytskyi can be dismissed by a majority vote from the company’s Supervisory Board, which currently has six members.
