«I think that Viktor Korol’s candidacy for the post of the SBU head is likely to be supported. The only thing I care about is how the SBU members will treat him. It is well known, that officers of special services don’t accept officers from other services. But I am sure that life and professional experience will help Viktor Korol to manage to work there» – Volodymyr Stretovych said in his interview to the Razom site.

According to him, Mr. Korol will manage to solve current SBU problems. «It is necessary to work hard there as the SBU must take care of Ukraine’s security in economy and defense sphere and fight against corruption» – he added.

The MP does not rule out the possibility that the «anti-crisis» coalition will ask the president to make concession to them. «Perhaps, they will demand the post of the first deputy» – he predicts.

»The SBU must be out of politics and serve the state regardless of political membership» – Volodymyr Stretovych emphasized.
