The potential head of the Servant of the People faction in the Verkhovna Rada, David Arakhamia, has named probable contenders for the post of Ukraine's prime minister.
Arakhamia spoke about this in an interview with the Novoye Vremya (NV) news outlet.

He noted that the party has a shortlist, which includes Naftogaz CEO Andriy Kobolyev, Naftogaz Executive Director Yuriy Vitrenko, Deputy Head of the Presidential Office Oleksiy Honcharuk, and IMF Alternate Executive Director Vladyslav Rashkovan.

The Verkhovna Rada is most likely to be headed by Dmytro Razumkov, Arakhamia said.

"I think that Dmytro Razumkov will be the speaker. [...] We did not have any alternative candidate in Truskavets. This a non-alternative candidate," he said.

He also named Deputy Head of the Presidential Office Ruslan Riaboshapka as a possible contender for the post of Ukraine's prosecutor general but noted that there were alternative candidates.

Ukrainian oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky earlier named two main contenders for the post of Ukraine's prime minister. In his opinion, they are Yuriy Vitrenko and Oleksiy Honcharuk.
