When asked the odds of Azarov becoming the prime minister again,
Kliuyev said: “The odds are good I believe. The thing is he is an
experienced prime minister, he has worked in the cabinet for a long
time, and I think that he is a worthy candidate. “

When asked whether he himself was ready to lead the government,
Kliuyev said: “It is a big responsibility to be prime minister,
especially in such a difficult time.”

Kliuyev was elected to the parliament on the list of the Party of Regions, but has turned down his MP’s mandate.

As reported, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych accepted the
resignation of Prime Minister Azarov and the entire Cabinet of Ministers
of Ukraine.

The head of state has signed a relevant decree on December 3, after
Azarov filed in his resignation, due to his election as an MP.
