“the opportunity to lead a new and important area of relations with a key partner”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced his intention to remove Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko after just one year, a move that, under Ukrainian law, forces the entire cabinet to resign. He also indicated upcoming changes among top law enforcement officials. In a social media post, Zelensky said he had given Svyrydenko a chance to oversee an important new diplomatic relationship with a major partner, according to reports. The reshuffle occurs as Ukraine confronts its largest corruption scandal—the so-called Midas case—allegedly involving a $100 million kickback scheme at the state nuclear firm Energoatom, which has ensnared former Zelensky associates. Lawmakers have identified several possible successors, while an opposition figure suggested Svyrydenko may become ambassador to the United States.
