“If we say that the president cannot change (Foreign Minister - RT ), I think the president has the right, let him offer him to go on vacation for a few months,” RIA Novosti reports Groysman.

He said that he was ready to sign this leave.

“And I am ready, using my powers as prime minister, to nominate the first deputy minister, who will fulfill the duties, but let the president offer this nominee,” the Ukrainian prime minister added.

Earlier, Zelensky during the briefing said that Klimkin and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry make decisions on their own, without consulting him.
