On Friday, a crucial coordination meeting was held at the Kyiv City Council, where Kyiv’s Mayor Vitali Klychko made an unexpected move by transferring the question of dismissing his first deputy, Mykola Porozhnyk, to the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

Sources within the Kyiv City Council indicate that the mayor confirmed: Porozhnyk firmly refuses to voluntarily step down, complicating the dismissal process.

However, Klychko announced that on Monday he had officially submitted a dismissal request to the government for approval.

This decision is expected to cause additional tensions in Kyiv’s political landscape, as discussions regarding the next steps and possible consequences continue.
