Ukraine Ministers Resign Amid Major Corruption Probe ⚖️

Ukraine ministers resign over major graft probe. Amid a wide-ranging corruption investigation into the country's energy sector, Ukraine's justice and energy ministers offered their resignations. Shortly after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for her removal over a sweeping corruption scheme in the country's energy sector, Ukraine's Energy Minister Svitlana Grynchuk announced her resignation. "I have submitted my resignation," she wrote in a social media post, adding that she had not violated any laws. Grynchuk is not known to have been charged in the case, which centers on allegations of $100 million (€86 million) in kickbacks. She has also not been named by investigators or prosecutors as having profited from the scheme. According to Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko, German Galushchenko, the former energy minister who became justice minister in July, had also offered his resignation.
