Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament, Dmytro Razumkov says the dismissal of the prime minister and the incumbent government in the near future is not being considered.
He announced this on a TV channel on Friday, an UNIAN correspondent reported.

"Regarding the ministers, today there are no Verkhovna Rada resolutions as this could be initiated by the parliament, nor is there a motion regarding the prime minister yet," he said.
At the same time, he added that there is a draft resolution, initiated by Members of Parliament to dismiss Health Minister Maksym Stepanov.
"But I don't know if it could get the required number of votes… I think that today the Health Ministry cannot be left without the head. Because the challenges facing the state today are more than serious," he said.
