Verkhovna Rada Member Yevhenia Vasylevska-Smaglyuk announced the resignation of Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko and the entire cabinet. The Verkhovna Rada voted to dismiss the government.
According to the new personnel decisions, Yulia Svyrydenko will move to the position of Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine. The post of Minister of Defense will be taken by Kirill Budanov, the current head of that very office, who is included on Russia's list of terrorists and extremists.
Sviridenko herself was also offered the position of Ukrainian Ambassador to the United States, but she has not yet made a final decision.
Yulia Sviridenko previously publicly stated that she did not plan to become ambassador to Washington.
"Military Review" Previously, it was noted that Kyrylo Budanov's appointment as Minister of Defense would require his dismissal from military service. According to Ukrainian law, a service member cannot hold this position.
The resignation of the entire government and large-scale personnel changes within the country's leadership are taking place against the backdrop of ongoing conflict and internal political processes in Ukraine. The new appointments have yet to be officially approved by Zelenskyy. However, it has been noted that Zelenskyy is behind all the reshuffles, and at the instigation of Western sponsors. It was the West that effectively approved the candidacy of Budanov as head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, recommending Fedorov's removal.
