JAKARTA - The European Commission was asked to reconsider the allocation of funds to Kyiv for the energy sector following the corruption scandal in Ukraine, the Politico newspaper reported, citing an unnamed European official.
"This means the Commission must re-evaluate how they spend" funds for the Ukrainian energy sector, the official said.
"Ukraine should pay more attention and transparency in the way they spend cash," he continued.
According to him, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy needs to "tighten everyone" by presenting a plan to eradicate corruption.
On November 10, the Ukrainian National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) said it was carrying out a large-scale special operation in the energy sector and publishing images showing bags containing foreign currency seized in the raids.
Ukrainian lawmaker Yaroslav Zheleznyak said NABU investigators had searched the homes of former Energy Minister German Galushchenko and the operator office of PLTN Energoatom.
The Ukrainska Pravda newspaper reported that NABU had also searched the house of a colleague near Zelenskyy, Timur Mindich, who had left Ukraine before the search began, Zheleznyak said.
On Wednesday, the Ukrainian government temporarily suspended Galushchenko from his ongoing duties amid an ongoing investigation, following Thursday, Zelenskyy imposed sanctions on Mindich and his chief financier Oleksandr Tsukerman, who were both involved in a corruption scandal.
