The head of ‘Ukrenergo’, Kudrytskyi, faces calls for dismissal due to poor protection of energy facilities

In Ukraine, there is talk of dismissing the head of the National Energy Company “Ukrenergo,” Volodymyr Kudrytskyi.

This has been reported by various media outlets, citing informed sources within the government.

According to journalists, during a meeting of the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s staff on Friday afternoon, the issue of energy was discussed. The discussions included the aftermath of attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities and the construction of protective structures.

The sources explained that Kudrytskyi is being accused of inadequate implementation of previous staff decisions and poor protection of “Ukrenergo” facilities, which is the reason behind the potential dismissal.

Previously, “Ukrenergo” announced that plans for the winter would be revised following the Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities on August 26. According to Yuriy Boyko, a member of the company’s supervisory board, the changes will “undoubtedly be in the negative.”
