Ukrainian Prime Minister Oleksiy Honcharuk says he has tendered his resignation to president.
update:
"In order to prevent any doubts about our respect and trust to the president, I have submitted my resignation to the president with the right to bring the issue to the parliament," he wrote in a post on Facebook on January 17.
The move comes amid a scandal surrounding an audio recording allegedly of Honcharuk disparaging the economic knowledge and competence of both himself and the president.

"Key Ukrainian official responds to Parnas' Trump allegations"
The interview was well before the resignation I'm pretty positive.

There have been some delivery problems and I've put some trash on them a few times because of this..The
dude in the Ukraine has never mentioned the problems in his country..I guess, an assumption..So I think I
will gently apologize for the bullshit stumpy has caused..And that part of our govt is being run by thieves
and robbers...Traitors...
I'll probably tone it down...
