Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a major reshuffle of his government on Sunday, saying there would soon be a new prime minister and cabinet.
“Ukraine is changing its political strategy,” Zelenskyy wrote in a post on X, adding that he had discussed the matter with current Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko.
“We determined that these changes require a renewal of the Cabinet of Ministers,” he continued. “I am grateful to Yuliia for her clear, steady, and effective work as Prime Minister, for her years of productive service on Ukraine’s team, and I have offered her the opportunity to lead a new and important area of relations with a key partner”.
He gave no further details on Svyrydenko’s new role or her replacement.
In her own post on social media, Svyrydenko said she was proud of her work in office and that she remained “ready to serve the Ukrainian state.”
In Ukraine, cabinet reshuffles require parliamentary approval. Nevertheless, lawmakers have largely rallied around Zelensky since Russia’s invasion of the country began in February 2022, and do not typically block his agenda.
Russian strikes on Ukraine continue
The move comes after Russian attacks on the Dnipropetrovsk region in southeastern Ukraine killed at least three people overnight, local authorities reported.
One person was also killed following a drone strike on Kherson, per Yaroslav Shanko, the head of the Kherson City Military Administration.
On Monday, leaders of Ukraine’s allies under the “Coalition of the Willing” are set to meet in Paris for talks on ending the war.
