A significant government reshuffle is underway in Ukraine, with several ministers submitting their resignations. Among those who have resigned are Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, Justice Minister Denys Maljuska, Strategic Industries Minister Oleksandr Kamyshin, and Deputy Prime Ministers Olha Stefanischyna and Iryna Wereschtschuk.
The shake-up aims to strengthen the government ahead of the winter and improve the overall governance. President Zelenskyy has ordered the reshuffle, citing the need for 'new energy' to strengthen the state during the ongoing war with Russia.
While some ministers will be reappointed to new positions, critics see the reshuffle as mere window dressing and question its ability to address the country's challenges. Despite the resignations, key ministries such as finance, interior, and defense are not affected.
The reshuffle comes at a critical time as Ukraine faces ongoing fighting and energy supply challenges due to Russia's constant attacks on infrastructure. The international community is closely watching the developments, particularly the resignation of Foreign Minister Kuleba, who has played a significant role in Ukraine's diplomacy and relations with Western partners.
