Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov said that he had not received any proposals to head the Ministry for Strategic Industries. The head of the military department stated this in a commentary to ICTV Facts..

" I have not had a single conversation about the Ministry for Strategic Industry with the President of Ukraine, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief,"

The head of the Ministry of Defense added that he would refuse the post of head of the Ministry of Strategic Industry, since he does not have the expertise that would allow him to perform high-quality work in this post. In his opinion, the information about the future appointment is erroneous.
