The Ukrainian government decided to dismiss head of the Chornobyl nuclear power plant exclusion zone Yuri Antipov.

The decision was taken at a visiting government meeting in Poltava on Wednesday after Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk had voiced the specific proposal.

The prime minister explained his position by the fact that required measures had not been taken for several months of his trip in the exclusion zone and concrete instructions to its chief.
