Klitschko Initiated the Dismissal of Bakhmatov, Head of the Desnyansky District State Administration

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko has appealed to the Prime Minister of Ukraine, proposing to initiate disciplinary proceedings against Maksym Bakhmatov, head of the Desnianskyi District State Administration, and to consider his dismissal.

The appeal cites possible displays of disrespect toward representatives of Kyiv’s local community, violations of ethical standards of conduct, and actions that, in the opinion of the city authorities, undermine the authority of the civil service.

The appeal was prompted by numerous complaints from citizens regarding Bakhmatov’s activities and conduct, as well as a petition from the Association of Entrepreneurs and Veterans of Ukraine demanding his dismissal.

Police have opened a criminal investigation against Bakhmatov, according to Starostenko.

The clinic on Lisova Street has remained damaged for the third year in a row following a deadly Russian strike.

Previously, Maxim Bakhmatov, former managing partner of UNIT.City, became an advisor to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko. He will focus on the development of information technology and the digitization of Kyiv.
