The deputy prosecutor general, who was embroiled in a scandal over a holiday in Spain, has been fired, the people’s representative said.
President Volodymyr Zelensky fired Deputy Prosecutor General Oleksiy Symonenko. This was announced on Monday evening, January 23, by People’s Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak.
Simonenko recently went to celebrate the New Year with his family in Spain and got involved in a scandal.
During martial law, he went on vacation abroad, despite President Volodymyr Zelensky’s direct ban. Journalists learned that Simonenko spent his 10-day winter vacation in Marbella, Spain, which was confirmed by a photo published by his wife on Instagram.
As reported, Symonenko left Ukraine on December 30, 2022 through the Krakovets checkpoint in a Mercedes BC 0001 XN car, with Viktor Derkach (driver). Back on 01/08/2023 with Roman Seretko (driving) in the same car.
Recall that today Zelensky announced personnel changes in his video message, and also prohibited officials from going on vacation or for other non-state purposes abroad. “If they want to take a break now, they will take a break outside of state service. Officials will no longer be able to go on vacation abroad or for any non-state purpose,” the president insisted.
