Ukrainian Defense Minister Stepan Poltorak says that 40% of the Defense
Ministry's senior officials have failed to pass polygraph tests during
personnel re-evaluation, according to Channel 5.
Thirty-five senior officials from the ministry participated in the
tests, and about 40% of them failed, Poltorak said. He said that he would
dismiss those who have failed, and respective documents would be prepared in
the coming week.
"There is no other way out. This is because the people who do not
take decisions on time, who had been working for 30-40 years without changing
anything in their work have a little prospect. In fact, they're facing
employment problems. The system is inefficient if it works as before," he
said.
In his words, changing the personnel will take from three to four
months.
He also says he plans to reduce the personnel of the Ukrainian Navy's
headquarters to 300 people from 500. "The Navy's headquarters should not
exceed 300 people," he said.
As UNIAN reported earlier, almost two-thirds of the ministry's senior
officials are facing dismissal following re-evaluation.
On March 30, Poltorak announced the re-evaluation of the Defense Ministry's personnel with the use of polygraphs with a subsequent reduction
in the number of employees.
