Turn in Kyiv: Julia Swyrydenko could become the new Prime Minister!

Kiew, Ukraine - Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj plans comprehensive government reorganization that could bring far -reaching changes in the political landscape of Kiev. As vienna.at , Julia Swyrydenko, the current Minister of Economic Affairs, is proposed as the new prime minister. Their appointment that depends on the consent of parliament could mean a decisive turn for the Ukrainian government.

Swryrydenko, which was appointed to her office in February 2022 before the Russian major attack, has developed international recognition through successful negotiations on a raw material agreement with the USA that was signed in April 2025. The Berliner Zeitung describes them as the key figure of these conversations and emphasizes that it belongs to the young, dynamic generation of Ukrainian leader.

far -reaching changes in the government

Selenskyj expressed his anticipation for the presentation of a action plan of the new government under Swrydenko's management. These changes could promote a positive dynamic in relationships with the United States and initiate further steps in the defense sector, in particular through the planned appointment of Minister of Defense Rustem Umerow as an ambassador in Washington. Deutschlandfunk explains that the restructuring is part of a broader strategy of Selenskyj that has carried out several cabinet conversions since the beginning of the war.

Current resignations within the government set accents for the redesign. The head of the state asset fund and several vice heads of government have resigned. These massive changes reflect the pressure that is on the Ukrainian state apparatus, especially with regard to the efficiency and integrity of these institutions in times of war.

Political support for Selenskyj in parliament was described as strongly, which increases the likelihood that Swrydenko's appointment is successful. Their focus on strengthening the Ukrainian economy and the expansion of weapon production is necessary, since the Ukrainian economy is strongly struck by the ongoing conflict. Kiev is dependent on annual support in billions in western countries to continue the war against Russia.

The planned restructuring could not only consolidate the stability of the government under Selenskyj, but also set the course for a modernized and efficient administration that can better deal with the pressing challenges of war and international politics.
