Part 5/9:
This restructuring underscores the need for internal cohesion and clarity during wartime, especially as Ukraine faces external threats. Zelensky emphasized that the primary focus must always remain on defending the nation—a principle that guides all internal decisions and leadership appointments.
Economic Stability and Government Priorities
The President outlined his expectations for the Cabinet of Ministers, led by Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko. The government’s primary tasks are:
Passing the 2026 budget, ensuring Ukraine can sustain its defense, social programs, and economic stability.
Assessing and potentially replacing current ministers in energy and justice, based on their ability to meet the demands imposed by ongoing warfare and winter challenges.
