Prehistory:

· The organizer of the scheme was businessman, co-owner of Kvartal-95 and former partner of President Zelensky, Timur Mindych. The prosecution noted that Mindich exerted influence on the former Minister of Energy Herman Galushchenko and the former Minister of Defense Rustem Umyerov.
· On the morning of November 12, Prime Minister Yulia Svyridenko announced that Galushchenko, who is currently the Minister of Justice, was removed from his post after a high-profile NABU investigation into corruption at Energoatom.
· The German government continues to trust Ukraine against the background of the energy corruption scandal, but will closely monitor developments.
· Finland previously also said that the corruption scandal in the government of Ukraine will not have a negative impact on the European Union’s plans to provide financial assistance to Kyiv.
