Defense Ministry to gain new structure, work on eight tracks - Reznikov

A new structure of the ministry will be approved to this end, says Minister of Defense Oleksiy Reznikov who spoke in the Verkhovna Rada during a Q&A session on Friday, December 3, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“In the near future, we plan to approve a new structure of the ministry, which will reflect the main areas at the functional level: strategy; financial management; supply and logistics; armaments; digital transformation; human development; international cooperation; and communications," the minister said.

Reznikov noted that the gradual "demilitarization" of positions in the ministry has already begun, and that military servicemen will mostly be employed by the General Staff in Kyiv.

Also, the minister said that by the end of 2021, it is planned to create five inter-structural committees that would enhance the efficiency of decision-making.
