'The committee has not yet communicated with Ms. Hrynchuk. Perhaps next week, when she is ready, we will definitely invite her to the committee and have a conversation, and hear not just posts on Facebook, but live about key issues,' said the deputy.

He clarified that it concerns the completion of the Khmelnytskyi NPP, protective structures of Ukrenergo, as at the substations they are still not 100% ready and what plans are being made in this direction and at what costs.

Also, the new minister will be expected to make decisions regarding the strategy for finding funds for gas purchases from the EU.

'And it is important that Ms. Svitlana engages 100% and the focus must be on finding resources together with Naftogaz,' clarified Nahornyak.

He believes that Hrynchuk could leverage her experience in communication with Western partners, which she gained while serving as Deputy Minister of Energy and Minister of Ecology.

As a reminder, the Verkhovna Rada approved the new composition of the Cabinet, which includes Svitlana Hrynchuk, heading the Ministry of Energy.

In her new position, she will be engaged in energy development, searching for ways to stabilize energy in the face of possible Russian attacks on our energy facilities.
