Zelensky's Government Reshuffle Signals Election Plans and New Phase of Ukraine War
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has initiated a major government reshuffle, replacing Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko and likely the defense minister, less than a year after appointing them. Svyrydenko is expected to become ambassador to the United States, while energy sector expert Sergii Koretskyi, head of Naftogaz, is the leading candidate for prime minister. The changes come as Ukraine prepares for a critical autumn phase of the war, with Russian forces expected to target the energy grid. Zelensky stated the reshuffle aims to place true experts in key positions, particularly in foreign policy and security. The move also signals preparations for upcoming elections and addresses strained relations with Poland and Hungary, as well as domestic issues like minority education and frontline energy security.
