There is a reset in the Cabinet of Ministers
As David Arahamiya, head of the Servant of the People faction, wrote in his Telegram, 4 September will be the ‘day of dismissals’ and the 5th will be the ‘day of appointments’.
‘As promised, a big reset of the government can be expected already this week,’ Arahamia wrote. According to him, more than 50 per cent of the cabinet staff will undergo changes.
At the same time, Golos MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak said at a briefing on Tuesday that the changes will be ‘point changes’ and that one should not expect a complete reset of the government because, according to the law, its composition cannot be completely replaced during martial law.
