Recall 

The Supreme Commander-in-Chief's Office has decided to dismiss the head of Ukrenergo , Volodymyr Kudrytskyi. He has to write a letter of resignation of his own free will. The reason is the incomplete construction of the protective structures around Ukrenergo's substations.

Subsequently, the Supervisory Board of Ukrenergo confirmed that it had decided to terminate the powers of Volodymyr Kudrytskyi as the Chairman of the Company's Management Board early by agreement of the parties. Daniel Dobbeny, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of NPC Ukrenergo, and Peder Andreasen, a member of the Supervisory Board, submitted their written notices of early termination of their powers as members of the company's Supervisory Board. 

Volodymyr Kudrytskyi himself stated that his dismissal was not related to the protection of Ukrenergo substations
