The parliamentary factions of the Popular Front and the Petro Poroshenko Bloc have reconciled their positions regarding the next prime minister and a new government of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko Bloc faction deputy head Oleksiy Honcharenko said.

"To my knowledge, all the agreements have been reached and there are no outstanding questions. There are some internal issues in the Popular Front faction, and they will deal with that in a meeting... We have never discussed any other candidate than Volodymyr Groysman [the incumbent speaker of the Verkhovna Rada]. We simply have no other candidate. Hopefully, the Groysman cabinet will be formed tomorrow," Honcharenko told reporters at the Verkhovna Rada, before the morning plenary session.
