A senior Ukrainian government official was sacked on Sunday amid fraud allegations as the Ministry of Defence launched an internal audit about an alleged contract signed at grossly inflated prices.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmygal announced the dismissal of Vasyl Lozynkiy, Deputy Minister of Development of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure, in a statement on the Telegram social messaging platform.
Lozynkiy, in office since May 2020, had been arrested on Saturday by the Ukrainian National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) on suspicion of embezzlement.
The NABU said that Lozynkiy had "received ($400,000) to facilitate the conclusion of contracts for the purchase of equipment and generators at inflated prices".

The corrupt US Liberal government corrupts everybody!
The age old EU saying, “ when shaking hands with a Ukrainian, be sure to check how many fingers he stole”, ringing truer every day….Ukie corruption is legendary in the world’s financial markets, the reason? It has been government sanctioned since 1991.
Wake up war cheerleaders, you are being duped, again, and again…..
Don’t be cynical. US subsidies to Zelensky have NO link to Hunter Biden and Biden Family. Don’t ever suggest otherwise!
Zelensky has been busy with his consolidation of power the last couple of weeks. Several Ministers fired, three gone in an air “accident”. Sure looks like a reorganization.
leftists used to say we backed a corrupt regime in South Vietnam. Why are they now supportive of Biden backing corruption in Ukraine? Leftists and Hollywood love Zelensky but they hated the South Vietnamese. Can anybody explain?
The leftists hated any opposition to Russia, and Vietnam was opposition to Russia.
Wait, what? Ukraine and scandal? Where would they ever get enough money for some sort of scama lama to occu.......oh!? 10% for some unnamed big guy?
Who woulda known?
Leftists have always loved authoritarian dictators; examples include, but are not limited to: Stalin, Mao, Castro and Ortega.
“ The leftists hated any opposition to Russia, and Vietnam was opposition to Russia.”
Yes, but my point is that the leftists love Zelensky, who is in opposition to Russia.
Everyone respects Zelensky except for the anti-America/anti-NATO people who are supporting Russia in this war.
There is far more interest in stopping Russia than just some liberals and democrats, all of NATO and more are united in stopping this Russian takeover of Ukraine.
Not true. I’m not supporting Russia and never have. But I have no respect for Zelensky. Can’t stand him.
I feel for the Ukrainian people who are losing their loved ones, their homes, their livelihoods and just basic creature comforts because of this measuring contest occurring between two egomaniacs and their assorted sycophants.
Yeah, we read your posts, and we know who you support.
Hollywood leftists love Zelensky. They invite him to all their award shows. Must be his support for trans “rights” and the Ukrainian money that flows to the Biden family
Find one post where I’ve expressed any support for Russia.
All you Zelensky lapdogs make that same accusation but you can’t back it up. Are you taught that tactic in your Soros training? (See? Stupid accusations can work both ways. I don’t like stooping to the Zelensky-bots’ level, but sometimes it seems to be the only thing you understand.)
“Sacked”?
What amateurs in Ukraine with their quaint notions of justice!
In Russia all the grifters accidentally fall out of windows!
You have been posting for a very, very long time on Russia versus Ukraine and we know who you support.
In fact, you are pretty nasty in your postings on this topic.
“Everyone respects Zelensky except for the anti-America/anti-NATO people who are supporting Russia in this war.”
Spoken like a true Ukrainian Loyalist and Alexander Vindeman acolyte.
Those who are anti American would subject America’s divergent, existential interests to the interests of a Eastern European dictatorship.
They put Ukraine first.
While American patriots recognize America shares no interest whatsoever with Ukraine and would cut them off entirely. And let the chips fall where they may.
I contend the Ukrainian Loyalists are the traitors to the American people.
You can contend what you want, people do it during all the wars where Russia is on the other side from America, this is nothing new.
America and our dozens of NATO allies and other American allies are in opposition to your Russia.
Your anti-America position is nothing new, we have seen it all our lives when we oppose Russia.
