Prosecutor General Oleksandr Medvedko of Ukraine

After all, Medvedko is a presidential appointee according to the 2006 constitution.

Oleksandr Medvedko was given his job back on Friday, June 1, as part of a series of compromises between President Viktor Yushchenko and his political nemesis Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych.

Ukrainian Prosecutor-General Oleksandr Medvedko has commented on progress in investigating several high-profile cases, including the bankruptcy of one of Ukraine's largest banks, Prominvestbank, the Elita-Tsentr housing scam and the death of Dnipropetrovsk regional prosecutor Volodymyr Shuba in an interview with a Ukrainian daily.

As of 6 August Oleksandr Medvedko has not resigned and there has been no response whatsoever from the President, the Cabinet of Ministers or the Verkhovna Rada.

Oleksandr Medvedko has not only not resigned, but judging by the official statement issued by the Prosecutor General’s Office Press Service considers this appalling contempt for the principles of a law-based country to be justified.

Since then, Ukrainian Prosecutor-General Oleksandr Medvedko has criticized the court’s decision.

We are preparing our response regarding the person who ordered the murder, who is also accused of committing other serious crimes,” Medvedko was reported as saying by the Ukrainian News news agency during a PGO meeting in Kyiv on July 21.

I can’t affirm anything officially, but I know that Medvedko is involved in my husband’s case.

Oleksandr Medvedko said that despite two requests, Moscow had not provided a sample of dioxin, the poison given to Mr Yushchenko before he was elected.

At a press conference in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, Mr Medvedko said only three countries in the world produced the chemical.

Mr Medvedko said his office had received samples from the UK and USA, but not yet from Russia.

Mr Medvedko said he hoped to press the matter by holding talks with his Russian counterpart in the near future.

Notably, earlier, Oleksandr Medvedko said he won't accept resignation.

Baloha noticed that an appeal on giving a vote of nonconfidence to Oleksandr Medvedko had been registered more than a week ago.

Medvedko is not the only in Ukraine who can be the Prosecutor General.
