Kyiv: There has been a huge upheaval in President Zelensky’s government since Russia’s most horrific attack in Poltava, Ukraine. So far, more than 50 people have been confirmed dead in the Russian attack, while more than 200 people are injured. Meanwhile, the resignation of 4 ministers including Ukraine’s weapons chief has shaken the Zelensky government. In the difficult circumstances of the deadly war going on with Russia, Ukraine’s weapons production chief and strategic minister Oleksandr Kamyshin along with 4 other ministers have resigned from their posts. It is being told that Kamyshin has taken this step in anticipation of the post of Defense Minister.
The resignations of environment and reintegration ministers, including Strategic Industries Minister Oleksandr Kamyshin, following the dismissal of Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Minister Olha Stepanishina earlier this year, have left more than a third of the cabinet vacant. President Vladimir Zelensky and his political allies are expected to decide to fill the ministry vacancies to streamline the situation ahead of his visit to the United States this month. The resignations come a day after Russia’s deadly missile attack killed more than 50 people in Ukraine.
A big challenge stands in front of Zelensky
The resignation of 4 Ukrainian ministers together amid Russia’s deadly attacks has posed a huge problem for President Zelensky. Let us tell you that this month Zelensky is going to visit America to present a plan to win over Russia to President Joe Biden. Now at such a time, filling the vacant posts in his team has become the most difficult challenge for him. Zelensky has earlier said in one of his speeches that “autumn will be extremely important for Ukraine. Our state institutions must be configured in such a way that Ukraine can achieve all the results we need.
For this, we will have to strengthen some areas of the government and preparations have been made to change its structure.
Zelensky dismissed his deputy chief of staff
According to a decree published on the website of the President of Ukraine, Zelensky has also dismissed one of his deputy chiefs of staff, Rostyslav Shurma, whose portfolio is the economy.
David Arakhamia, a senior lawmaker from Zelensky’s party, said there would be a “major government reorganisation” in the president’s office with more than half of ministers replaced. (Reuters)
