The head of Ukrposhta Ihor Smeliansky will continue to lead the national postal operator after being appointed as the member of the supervisory board of Ukroboronprom.
“I will not receive reward for work as the member of the supervisory board, this will be my personal contribution to the country’s defense. I will continue to manage Ukrposhta, as I did before, and I hope that with the help of Oleksiy Honcharuk, Vladyslav Krykliy and the Verkhovna Rada, the privatization law will not be the last victory in the near future,” Smeliansky said.
To him, the relevant appointment was made taking into account his experience in corporatization of Ukrposhta, carried out reforms, as well as his work experience in the rocket and space division of the largest US defense enterprises – Lockheed Martin.
“I will help to prepare a reform plan, a plan of possible corporatization, to launch a full-fledged supervisory board, etc. I must solve these problems by the end of 2019 – there are less than hundred days left, so we will accelerate. The efforts to make quick and effective reforms wearing “white gloves” will fail. But we need to make sure that all actions will be clear and transparent (as much as the defense sector allows), and, most importantly, honest,” Smeliansky noted.
