Serhiy Shkarlet wrote a letter of resignation from the post of Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine. The current director of the Minor Academy of Sciences and volunteer of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oksen Lisovoy will most likely work in this post.

Politicians, diplomats, political and public figures and scientists are expressing their support for the new prospective Minister of Education. 24 The channel has collected for you the reactions of Ukrainians to the fact that Oksen Lesnoy can head the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.

How Ukrainians react to the proposed new minister

Oksen Lisovoy is the son of dissidents, a teacher and director of the Minor Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Now he combines his work with service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, namely in the 95th Air Assault Brigade. At the beginning of the invasion, he volunteered to defend our state.

Many note the professional qualities of Lisovoy, but most of all it makes an impression that the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine can be headed by a patriot and warrior. This leads to more positive reviews.

In addition, this contrasts with dissatisfaction with the work of the previous minister, against whom students came out to protest against the invasion.

Oksana Makarova

Mrs. Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States Oksana Makarova expressed her support for Oksen Lisovoy and added that she hopes for many new projects with the new Minister of Education.

Friend, we are proud and thank you for your service at the Children's School of Education, and today we are all incredibly happy about the announcement, keep our fists up and hope that in the next weeks we will actively continue all previous educational projects and start many new ones with such a cool Minister of Education,” Makarova wrote.

Vitaly Bezgin

People's Deputy Vitaly Bezgin, after a meeting of the Servant of the People faction, at which Oksen Lisovoy presented his vision of the development of education and science, expressed his full support for the candidate for the post of minister.

Oksen Lisovoy presented to the Servant of the People faction his vision of the development of the education sector if elected to the post of minister! Right priorities and accents! Adaptation of the educational industry to the war as challenge number 1. Professional and modern approach. I will vote with pleasure and great hope,” said Bezgin.

Oksana Zabuzhko

Writer, literary critic and politician Oksana Zabuzhko called the decision to appoint Lisovoy Minister of Education the second successful after the appointment of Valery Zaluzhny as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. She does not hide her passion for the new potential Minister of Education.

I know Oksen, and I was in his Minor Academy of Sciences. Never before, in all the years of independence, Ukrainian education has been in the hands of such an ideal, simply tailored by God himself for him, writes Zabuzhko.

Alina Solnyshkina

Alina Solnyshkina, Associate Professor of the Department of Social Work at the Oles Gonchar Dnipro National University, as a teacher, also expressed her passion for the candidate for the post of minister. The scientist compares the alleged head of the MES with the ancient Greek mythical hero Hercules.

Oksen Lisovoy, the new Minister of Education, you and your team have a lot of work to do. As a teacher of the highest category and a candidate of sciences, a person who is very worried about education, I see you as Hercules, who needs to clean the Augean stables of the pedagogical bureaucracy! I wish you good luck! For I read a lot of information about you, which seemed to me very important and close to my values. Solnyshkina noted.

Separately, it is worth noting that when publishing messages about a candidate for the post of Minister of Education, many netizens publish the same photo of Oksen Lisovoy, who reads Shevchenko's Kobzar at the front.
