"To remove Andrey Kostin from the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine. This decree takes effect from the day of its publication," the document states.
As of 22:30, Kostin is still listed as a member of the NSDC on the website of the Rada. In total, there are 21 members in the council (including the Attorney General).
On October 31, Zelensky dismissed Kostin from the position of Attorney General.
Kostin announced his decision to resign, on October 22. He made this decision following an NSDC meeting focused on the situation regarding violations in medical and social expert commissions that determine disability. According to the Attorney General, the review revealed "many shameful facts of abuse," particularly within the prosecution system.
