Yanukovych fires Kyiv City Administration head Popov, appoints MP Makeyenko
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has fired Oleksandr Popov as head of the Kyiv City Administration and appointed parliamentarian from Party of Regions Volodymyr Makeyenko instead, in line with decrees published on the presidential website on Saturday.
Before the appointment, Makeyenko headed the Verkhovna Rada committee on the rules of procedure, parliamentary ethics, and parliamentary functions.
Popov was suspended as the Kyiv City Administration head after the special police task force Berkut dispersed an opposition rally on Independence Square in Kyiv on November 30, 2013.
