On May 1, 2016 a law on the public service entered into force. It prohibits Ukrainian public officials from having any citizenship other than Ukrainian. A number of foreigners, who were invited to become Ukrainian public servants by President Poroshenko back in 2014, have also resigned, including Oleksandr Borovik and Mariya Gaidar who were deputies of Odesa Oblast Governor Mikheil Saakashvili. They also accepted positions of advisors.
