So now you know. And 1% you readers will also care. Telling you anyway.
UPDATE: And it turns out that he won’t. He was offered the post, initially accepted it on an unofficial level, then something went wrong with the negotiations and he backed out. “Too many conditions” say government sources.Also, the Vice Minister of Economy handed in his resignation today, so that’s another candidate off the table. Still nobody for the post this evening.
UPDATE2 Thursday: And now he’s accepted the position! It took some convincing apparently, but this afternoon he gets sworn into the job.
