Ukraine Zelenskyy Proposes PM Shmyhal as Defense Minister

News summary

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has proposed Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal as the new Minister of Defense, highlighting Shmyhal's extensive experience as vital for handling the country's critical defense responsibilities. Concurrently, Zelenskyy has nominated Yulia Svyrydenko, the current First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy, to become the new Prime Minister. The move forms part of a broader government reshuffle, with Defense Minister Rustem Umerov potentially becoming Ukraine's ambassador to the United States. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for parliamentary support for these changes and called for a swift audit of Ukraine's agreements with international partners. Parliament is expected to vote on the government's dismissal and new appointments around mid-July, with Svyrydenko preparing to present her proposed cabinet. These shifts reflect strategic adjustments in Ukraine's leadership amid ongoing national challenges.
