Zelensky's entourage split into “for” and “against” an extraordinary state of emergency in the country
The decision to introduce a state of emergency in Ukraine divided President Volodymyr Zelensky's entourage into two provisional camps: “for” and “against.”
This is written by “Ukrainskaya Pravda”, citing a source in the President's Office.
“The first group supports strict conditions for fighting the coronavirus, including Arsen Avakov, Serhiy Shefir. Also in favor of introducing a state of emergency is Health Minister Illya Yemets, who even threatened to resign if the NS decision is not adopted. He says the situation is catastrophic and he does not want to bear sole responsibility for it.
The other group, which includes the president himself and head of his office Andriy Yermak, is against the introduction of the NS. And this “worldview” was influenced by Zelensky’s talks with representatives of big business,” the report says.
16 in March Zelensky gathered businessmen and oligarchs in the presidential office and asked for help.
It is noted that it is representatives of big business who are against introducing the NS and provided the president with arguments on this matter.
