RFE: Volodymyr Hroysman: Ukraine's Likely Next Prime Minister Is Loyal Poroshenko Ally
The man identified by Ukraine's outgoing prime minister as his successor, Volodymyr Hroysman, is a 38-year-old loyalist of President Petro Poroshenko who was thrust onto the national scene after the Euromaidan unrest that toppled a government.
Hroysman's meteoric rise from mayoral upstart to speaker of a notoriously obstreperous parliament was fueled in part by perceptions that a relative outsider with little political baggage could unite rival lawmakers, but it also prompted questions about his inexperience and political indebtedness to Poroshenko.

All these Ukrops are doing is attempting to look as if they are making changes in order to get their paws on the next $1.7 billion in IMF welfare. The army will get a sprinkle (especially the fascist guard units), the people even less, while the rest is funneled out of the country to tax havens...like the Caymans and the U.S.
Of course, the ICIJ and other Soros/U.S. Gov. funded "journalist" projects will fail to expose most, if any, of it. Expect to see Kolomoisky and the other gangsters continue to pillage unhindered while the NAZI paras keep everyone in line.
Probably they are corrupt, BUT i dont see you calling Putin and others in Russia as you do in Ukraine. Bias
