The elected president plans to name the head of the national security group in late July. He has not had yet picked a person to lead the education, science and culture group.
"This group is very important as we stressed the importance of culture and education during the election campaign. This is why we have been considering candidates so carefully and responsibly and thus have not made the final decision yet," Nauseda said.
The decision will be made shortly, he added.
According to the elected president, the communication and legal groups have been almost fully formed, just as the other groups.
"We can say a team as such already exists today," Nauseda said.
