Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday appointed former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Reintegration, Iryna Vereshchuk, as the new deputy head of his office, according to a decree published on the presidential website.

In a separate move, Viktor Mykyta was relieved of his duties as head of the Zakarpattia regional state administration and appointed as another deputy head in Zelensky’s office.

Mykyta indicated that he will be responsible for overseeing regional affairs, with a focus on ensuring the efficient operation of military administrations and fostering communication and trust between authorities, local communities, and businesses.

Earlier in the week, Zelensky dismissed his deputy head of office, Rostyslav Shurma. Several key ministers also submitted their resignations, including Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, Environmental Protection and Natural Resources Minister Ruslan Strilets, Justice Minister Denys Maliuska, Minister of Strategic Industries Oleksandr Kamyshin, and Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration Olha Stefanishyna.

Vereshchuk herself also announced her resignation.

Additionally, Zelensky appointed Kamyshin as an external advisor for strategic issues, as stated in another decree published on the presidential website.

The Ukrainian President emphasized the need for fresh energy in his administration and initiated the most substantial cabinet reshuffle since the war with Russia began in February 2022.

Last week, Ukraine’s parliament approved the appointment of nine new ministers, including the foreign minister and two deputy prime ministers.

Sunday's reshuffle marks a continued overhaul of Zelensky’s team, with several decrees announcing new appointments within the presidential office.

Following his appointment, Kamyshin posted on Telegram, stating, "I will continue to work for our defense industry," while also hinting at involvement in other strategically important areas, though he did not provide further details.
