"He has all the competence required, he understands this sphere, he was involved in education management," said the head of the party HQ.
Kornienko noted that the outgoing head of the Ministry of Education and Science, Lilia Hrynevych, and acting head of the Ministry of Health Ulana Suprun are unlikely to continue their work in the new Cabinet. At the same time, Kornienko stressed, the "Servant of the People" intends to pursue the reforms launched earlier.
"Most of our proposals on school education expand and improve the reform of the New Ukrainian School. As for health care, it will be difficult to roll back the reform, but it must be carefully audited, because there's more questions to it than to education reform," said the head of the party HQ.
As UNIAN reported, the Servant of the People seeks to introduce "civil confiscation" of illegal assets of the country's officials.
