You have to explain this to the President in very simple terms. Honcharuk stated that the recording was out of context and that he wanted to dispel "all doubts about the respect and trust that [he] had in the president with his resignation." After a conversation between Zelensky and Honcharuk on the same day, the latter refused the request and asked the domestic secret service SBU to clarify who had recorded the conversation.

Following a renewed request for resignation, on March 4, 2020, Parliament appointed the previous Deputy Prime Minister Denys Schmyhal as his successor.
