Kinakh government

The Kinakh Government was created after the Ukrainian parliament had ousted the previous Cabinet of Viktor Yushchenko on April 26, 2001; it contained most of the ministers of its predecessor.[1] On May 29, 2001, 239 deputies voted for the appointment of Anatoliy Kinakh, chairman of the Ukrainian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, as Prime Minister of Ukraine.[1] His new government was Ukraine's tenth since Ukraine gained its independence in August 1991.[1]

On November 16, 2002, President Kuchma sacked the cabinet claiming "it had not pursued enough reforms".[2]
