We consider a recent proposal [1] to redefine the kilogram in terms of natural constants. In our opinion, the main objective of the redefinition should be to build such a version of the SI system in which the electric measurements are possible with the highest accuracy in SI units, and not in practical units as now. We emphasize that this objective can be achieved only with a simultaneous redefinition of the kilogram and ampere. This redefinition must be in terms of fixed values of the Planck constant h and the elementary charge e. Certain details of the possible redefinition are considered.
