KYIV. April 27 (Interfax-AVN) - The Ukrainian Communist Party has urged Ukrainian Security Service chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko to annul his directive on appointing former British special service officer Bridget Austin his advisor.
"We are calling on Nalyvaichenko to immediately annul his order on appointing Bridget Austin an advisor to the Security Service chief. The Security Service is supposed to ensure the state's security rather than provide information to the British or other intelligence services," the Communist Party press service quoted party leader Petro Symonenko as saying on Friday.
"We will insist not only on probing the circumstances of Bridget Austin's appointment, such as finding out who lobbied this candidacy, with whom this appointment was agreed upon, and so on, but also other similar appointments," he said.
