The political crisis that split Ukraine’s government and delayed billions of dollars in aid has ended, eliminating the risk of snap elections, according to the nation’s prime minister.
Volodymyr Hroisman, confirmed by parliament in April in a bid to stem the tensions, said Friday in an interview that any remnants of the trouble exist only inside the heads of opponents seeking to destabilize the country. His government is backed by a slim majority in Ukraine’s 450-seat parliament.
