Kirill Budanov has been appointed head of the Presidential Office (PO) of Ukraine to create a single path to negotiations. This was announced by head of state Vladimir Zelensky, Novosti.Live reported. “In this way, I showed that there will be only one communication from Ukraine, there will be one boat, one direction of negotiations, not three or four or more,” Mr. Zelensky said. The politician noted that he spoke with several candidates for this position – the current Minister of Defense of Ukraine Mikhail Fedorov, Sergei Kislitsa and Budanov himself. At the same time, Zelensky emphasized that the candidacy of deputy chief of staff of the president, Pavel Palisa, was not considered because he worked in the military field. On January 23-24, Budanov participated in negotiations between Ukraine and the United States and Russia in the UAE.
