This smells…………….
Why is the question, and who will replace him?
Update! This sounds like another guy who said he will resign to see if he has any popularity. Tymoshenko said her party won’t vote for his reignation, because they didn’t elect him. What’s the betting his resignation will not be accepted?
He was a Russian criminal that pulled a Joe Biden at least once and screwed the Ukrainian military on some equipment at the same time. Besides that, he routinely violated Ukrainian law and refused to speak Ukrainian. After 7 years? Poka poka…
Well, that’s not a loss for the country. He hasn’t accomplished much since he’s been in office.
Keeping his job he did well.
