Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has called for a complete reboot of the government of Ukraine, but said that it should be conducted based on the current coalition with the participation of the People's Front.

"We have missed the moment for the partial renewal of the Cabinet of Ministers. It was talked about too much and was finally shelved. Now the demand is obvious for a full reboot of the government. The prime minister still has an opportunity to decide on the best way to give space for this aspiration to be realized," Poroshenko said in his address to the nation published on the presidential website on Tuesday.

"The total reformatting of the Cabinet of Ministers must be performed on the basis of the current coalition that includes the Solidarity, the People's Front, Samopomich, and Batkivschyna. I particularly address the People's Front and its leaders with whom we go way back shoulder to shoulder and whom I have seen and will see in future as people with the same views and my political partners," Poroshenko said.
