KYIV, June 8 – Oleksandr Danyliuk, who was dismissed by the Ukrainian parliament under the proposal of Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman on Thursday, has said that among his key achievements in the post was the nationalization of PrivatBank, when he was not afraid of taking the lead, which allowed to protect the interests of 20 million citizens from one of the most powerful oligarch groups.

"Although those, who were supposed to do this together with me, were cowardly hiding in the offices," Danyliuk said, speaking before the resignation in the Verkhovna Rada and pointing to the head of the government who was present at the consideration of the issue.
