Galushchenko Case

Former Deputy Energy Minister Oleksandr Kheylo is accused of receiving a $500,000 bribe to allow the export of mining equipment from a frontline area in Donetsk.

NABU searches at Energy Minister Halushchenko’s property revealed something extraordinary: he and Hrynchuk spent the night in a mansion in Tsarske Selo, Kyiv, just before the investigation. This was no ordinary house — it belonged to fugitive Yanukovych-era minister Vitaliy Zakharchenko and has been under ARMA seizure since 2021, officially prohibiting use.

The Verkhovna Rada is set to vote on the dismissal of Justice Minister Herman Galushchenko and Energy Minister Svitlana Hrynchuk at its next session next week on Tuesday, November 18.
