Ukraine: Zelensky proposes a cabinet reshuffle and the replacement of Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko

(Il Sole 24 Ore Radiocor) - "Ukraine is changing its political strategy. Each priority area of foreign policy will be entrusted to a specific individual with solid experience, capable of implementing what has been agreed at leadership level and what the Ukrainian people desire. The most important areas include the United States and our licensing agreements for the production of Patriot systems, as well as other forms of bilateral cooperation on security matters, which must translate into tangible benefits for our countries and for Ukrainian and American companies.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has announced a cabinet reshuffle via X and proposed the replacement of Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko. “The same applies to our domestic work. There are new challenges and new tasks” and “consequently, personnel changes will begin in Ukraine to ensure the implementation of the updated political strategy. I have discussed the details with Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko. We have agreed that these changes require a reshuffle of the Cabinet of Ministers. I am grateful to Yulia for her clear, consistent and effective work as Prime Minister, for her years of fruitful service within the Ukrainian team, and I have offered her the opportunity to lead a new and important area of relations with a key partner. I expect that, together with Members of Parliament, we will make the necessary changes to the Ukrainian Government. There will also be changes at the top levels of the law enforcement agencies.”
