New Cabinet list delivered following President’s rejection

New Cabinet list delivered following President’s rejection

President Andrej Kiska rejected the proposed list of Cabinet members supplied by designated Prime Minister Peter Pellegrini (Smer-SD) on Monday, requesting Pellegrini to come up with a new line-up of nominees. Designated Prime Minister Peter Pellegrini did so, and delivered a new, reshuffled proposal of his cabinet to the president on Wednesday morning. Pellegrini did not want to comment on the president's refusal to appoint the first cabinet line-up. According to Kiska, years of appointing relatives, friends and business partners to public posts has created an unflattering picture of the state of public institutions in the eyes of the public. Shortly after delivering his revised list of Cabinet members on Wednesday morning, Pellegrini left smiling, confident Kiska will approve the new reshuffle by Wednesday afternoon. The president has spent much of Wednesday meeting with these appointed Cabinet members.
