Zelenskyy announces upcoming round of government appointments
On the weekend of May 2, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced his intention to make personnel changes in government ranks with the goal of "strengthening government structures." The announcement came following consultations the President held with Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko.
According to Лачен пише and Цензор.НЕТ, the President emphasized that "some of the decisions will be made as early as next week." Zelenskyy noted that the issues are complex and require coordination with members of Parliament (the Verkhovna Rada), as some of the appointments are subject to their approval.
In a report by Оперативний ЗСУ, the President was quoted as saying: "There are personnel issues that require a solution, and in some positions, we need to continue the dialogue with parliamentarians". Additional sources such as Батальйон «Монако» and Ми Україна emphasized that this concerns a structural strengthening of government ministries, although the President refrained from detailing the names of candidates or the specific positions at stake.
The reports in various channels, including Букви and UA Stream, clarify that some of the decisions that do not require Parliament's approval will be brought for approval by the Cabinet of Ministers during the upcoming week. The channels covering the event are focusing primarily on official reports from the Office of the President, without broad assessments regarding the identity of those being dismissed or newly appointed.
