Honcharuk writes letter of resignation as Prime Minister of Ukraine

Prime Minister of Ukraine Oleksiy Honcharuk has written a letter of resignation. He reported this on his Facebook.

"I took up this post to fulfil the President's program. He is an example of openness and decency for me. However, to remove any doubts about our respect and trust in the President, I wrote a letter of resignation and handed it to the President with the right to submit it to the Parliament. He is a person, to whom Ukrainians have expressed unprecedented confidence. He has every right to evaluate the effectiveness of each member of his team, which is changing the country", - Honcharuk wrote.

As previously reported, a wiretap posted on the network, at which allegedly Prime Minister Oleksiy Honcharuk admits that he is not competent in economic matters and speaks dismissively towards President Volodymyr Zelensky, got buzz at a meeting of the Servant of the People faction in the evening of January 15. On this record, Honcharuk allegedly says that he is "a complete layman in the economy".

The press service of the Cabinet of Ministers stated that it has no information about the authenticity of any audio or video recordings that are being spread on the Internet.
