Khmara is waiting for a reply.

Ukrainian Defense Minister Yevhen Khmara suggested that his predecessor Mykhailo Fedorov find a way to continue cooperation on joint projects. At the same time, no specific position was offered to the former minister, and Khmara has not yet received a response to his proposal.

Yevhen Khmara reported this during a closed-door meeting with journalists, according to "Glavkom".

Responding to a question about Mikhail Fedorov’s possible return to the Ministry of Defense, Khmara said that they had met in July. During that meeting, the new head of the defense ministry suggested to his predecessor that they consider continuing their collaboration.

However, according to Khmara, no specific position for Fedorov was discussed. The new minister is currently awaiting a response from the former minister.
