“Therefore, the shareholder (the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine – ed.) and the new management will make all decisions important for the company” – she wrote.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dissolved the Supervisory Board, dismissed the head of the board of Naftogaz, Andriy Kobolev, and appointed Yuriy Vitrenko in his place on April 28, 2021. The NJSC Naftogaz said that the decision was a legal manipulation. After that, the members of Naftogaz’s supervisory board submitted notices of early termination of their powers. In turn, the government called on the members of the Naftogaz Supervisory Board to remain in office until the election of a new composition. On September 7, Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal instructed First Deputy Prime Minister – Minister of Economy of Ukraine Oleksiy Lyubchenko to announce a competition within a week to select four independent members of Naftogaz’s supervisory board.
