The ministry has taken action to cut staff around the dismissal of its employees, which will likely become a precursor to the complete closure of the ministry.
Representatives of the U.S. Department of Education reported that staff reductions are happening within the framework of a wide-scale reorganization of the agency.
They added that this step was prompted by the necessity to reduce expenses and optimize the ministry's operations.
It is planned that after the reorganization, the ministry will function more effectively and focus on new priorities.
