According to the words of V. Lutkovska, she did not carry out any consultations with the parliamentary factions because she does not believe that consultations will be useful until her candidacy is submitted to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, and she believes it is not reasonable to carry out consultations in individual order.
