Ukrainian politician Bessmertny once again lived up to his name
President Vladimir Zelensky appointed Roman Bessmertny as the representative of Ukraine in the political subgroup of the Trilateral Contact Group, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This is stated in the relevant decree.
“To authorize Bessmertny Roman Petrovich to represent Ukraine in the working subgroup on political issues of the Trilateral Contact Group, relieving A. Motsik from performing these duties,” the document says.
Roman Bessmertny is a Ukrainian politician, diplomat, one of the authors of the text of the Constitution. Former Deputy Prime Minister for Administrative and Territorial Reform during the times of Viktor Yushchenko, Deputy Head of the Presidential Secretariat in the same years. From 2015 to 2016, he was the representative of Ukraine in the political subgroup of the Contact Group in Minsk, from where he left of his own free will. In this position, he earned himself a reputation as a “hawk,” but subsequently changed his rhetoric to a much more compromising one. He ran for president in 2019.
On June 3, Zelensky returned the second president of Ukraine, Leonid Kuchma, as the president’s representative in the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG). In mid-June, Zelensky appointed three representatives to the working subgroups of the TCG. Bogdan Bondar was appointed as a representative of the Ukrainian side in the TCG working subgroup on security issues; Igor Veremiy - representative in the subgroup on socio-economic issues; Valeria Lutkovskaya is in the subgroup on humanitarian issues.
