KIEV, June 23 – Parliament on Tuesday overwhelmingly supported the resignation of Transportation Minister Yosyp Vinskiy, increasing pressure on Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who has been unable to make new appointments due to lack of legislative support.
The development increases to four the number of vacant seats in Tymoshenko’s 25-strong Cabinet, but opposition lawmakers have submitted new motions seeking to dismiss at least six more ministers.
