Yatseniuk's spokesperson refutes reports of her boss leaving for Argentina

The spokesperson for former prime minister Arseniy Yatseniuk, Olha Lappo, has refuted the media reports of Yatseniuk's departure to Argentina.

"They write that Yatseniuk is in Argentina. Fantasies are running wild... This spoof has been enthusiastically taken up by Russian media. No one has learnt any lesson from the Chechnya story," Lappo wrote on her Facebook page.

On April 25, the Ukrainian newspaper Vesti reported that former prime minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatseniuk hadn't spoken to the press after his resignation, and had likely left the country.

According to the newspaper, the ex-premier hasn't been spotted in his cottage in the village of Novi Petrivtsi for a week. Ukrainian lawmakers said they last spoke to the leader of the People's Front party on April 14 on the day of his resignation, the Vesti wrote.

Independent MP Serhiy Kaplin later told the newspaper that Yatseniuk flew to Argentina.
