The Cabinet of Ministers signed contracts with four members of the supervisory board of Energoatom instead of five. The Cabinet of Ministers delayed for seven months signing contracts with members of the supervisory board, and as a result did not sign a contract with one of the independent members. As a result, instead of the ratio of three independent members and two representatives from the state, the proportion of two independent and two state representatives was created on the supervisory board. On his Facebook page, People's Deputy from Golos Yaroslav Zheleznyak notes that independent members of the supervisory board should have an advantage (there should be more of them). And that’s exactly what happened to all the announcements last June.

" Something was stopping them all and as a result, after 7 months and already the position of ambassadors, they signed a contract with only 4 members. With Briton Timothy John Stone? have not signed and will not. Accordingly, now it’s 2 on 2. What does a blocking package give government representatives?. all supervisory. If not, then this will indicate that all this disgrace for 7 months was solely to disrupt normal corporate governance and maintain corruption in Energoatom,” Zheleznyak wrote.

He also noted that there is hope that the head of the supervisory board will use the casting vote in case of equal distribution of votes. Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Naftogaz Natalya Boyko noted that it is possible that in the regulations on the Supervisory Board of Energoatom and in the charter there may be a provision that gives the chairman of the Supervisory Board, in the event of an equal distribution of votes, preferential voting rights. Zheleznyak checked her assumption and confirmed: the chairman of the supervisory board will have the decisive vote. It should be noted that Jarek Neverovich, ex-minister of energy of Lithuania, was elected head of the supervisory board of Energoatom.. Michael Kirst, a nuclear energy expert with more than thirty years of experience, was elected vice-chairman..
