‘European Solidarity’ MP Iryna Friz announced that she would initiate the dismissal of MP Mariana Bezuhla from the post of the head of the subcommittee on democratic civil oversight and control.
The meeting of the Parliament Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence is to be held on November 28. Iryna Friz noted that a number of Bezuhla’s posts on social media create conditions ‘for the destruction of unity in the society, undermine trust in the military leadership of the country in the conditions of martial law’.
Iryna Friz wrote that she ‘initiated the Committee’s consideration of the issue of her [Bezuhla’s] removal from the position of the head of the subcommittee on democratic civilian oversight and control’.
‘If the dismissal of Mariana Bezuhla from the position of the deputy head of the committee requires a decision of the parliament, which is blocked despite two resolutions from the representative of the President in the parliament, a member of our committee Fedir Venislavskyi and the co-chair of the ‘European Solidarity’ parliamentary group Iryna Herashchenko, then the decision of the Committee on National Security will be enough to remove the leadership of the subcommittee. I count on the readiness of the committee members to consider the issue and make a decision’, – MP Friz said.
She emphasized that politicians should ‘counteract not only the external enemy, but also internal destabilization’, and stop discrediting the military.
Earlier, Petro Poroshenko commented on Bezuhla’s statement.
In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now. The EU is trying to work out how to spread responsibility for its own security across society as a whole, rather than leaving it to institutions alone. It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.
Petro Poroshenko’s lawyers have appealed to the High Anti-Corruption Court demanding that NABU be obligated to register proceedings regarding the fact of exerting influence on the court and to recognize Petro Poroshenko as a victim in the case of the Deputy Head of the Office of the President, Iryna Mudra, due to her pressure on Supreme Court judges who were considering a lawsuit to overturn sanctions.
Internationally recognized brands and financial institutions should direct capital to Ukraine now, not waiting for the hostilities to end. This was emphasized by Rinat Akhmetov, president of FC Shakhtar, during a working visit to UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, where he met with UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin.

In 2025, the deadliest year yet for civilians, Ukraine’s three largest charitable foundations raised a record 105.9 billion hryvnias. It is more than the years 2022–2024 combined. According to the UN, humanitarian aid in Ukraine was delivered by more than 450 organisations, reaching five million people over the course of the year. Civic foundations hold licences to purchase lethal weapons, which is a function states have monopolised for centuries. These record sums were underwritten by international government grants, which means foreign states now channel billions directly through Ukrainian civic funds, bypassing inter-state channels. It is hard to imagine a stronger institutional trust in civil society.
