Cabinet Shake-Up: Svyrydenko Targets Energy Chiefs for Dismissa

Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko has called for the dismissal of Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko and his deputy Yaroslav Hrynchuk, submitting a formal motion to the Verkhovna Rada on Tuesday — a move that signals potential shifts within Ukraine’s energy leadership amid ongoing reform pressures.

She wrote about this on Telegram.

Here’s the corrected and stylistically improved version:

We are talking about Minister of Justice Herman Halushchenko and Minister of Energy Svitlana Hrynchuk.

Svyrydenko emphasized that both officials had submitted their resignations in accordance with the law.

Would you like me to make it sound slightly more like a news lead (e.g., Reuters-style) or keep it as a neutral statement for a press release or report?

Subsequently, the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, noted that the submissions from the Prime Minister had already been received.

“Parliament will consider these issues in the near future in accordance with the established procedure,” he added.

As a reminder, Zelenskyy stated that the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Energy cannot remain in their positions and called on parliament to support the resignation of the officials.

Earlier, the Verkhovna Rada registered draft resolutions on the dismissal of the heads of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Energy – Herman Halushchenko and Svitlana Hrynchuk.

By the way, on November 12, Svitlana Grinchuk wrote a letter of resignation from the position of head of the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine.
