Divya Delhi: AP stated that former Ukrainian finance minister Yuliia Svyrydenko become prime minister. Denys Shmyhal resigned on Tuesday, and she took his place. He held the office for over five years after being appointed March 4, 2020. Yuliia led the US mining contract negotiations. Her selection as PM made her Ukraine's first new leader since the 2022 war with Russia. As President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reshuffles the Cabinet, she is among the individuals given new roles. His move aims to energize the nation. At home, the Cabinet changes haven't been a big deal. Zelenskyy relies on authorities who have proven capable and loyal over the four-year battle. Zelenskyy suggested replacing Ukraine's longest-serving prime minister, Denys Shmyhal. Shmyhal will become defense minister, per the legislative website. More Cabinet changes are inevitable, but Svyrydenko becoming prime minister is the major focus.
