A public outcry over the outfit of a female assistant of Ukrainian Deputy Education Minister Ihor Harbaruk has caused the official to resign from the cabinet, Servant of the People MP Yulia Hryshyna posted in her Telegram channel on Dec. 28. 

The same day Cabinet of Ministers officially approved Harbaruk's resignation.

The deputy education minister’s assistant, Khrystyna Tyshkun, wore a very revealing black dress during an official visit to the office of Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadoviy.
