Imitation instead of reality.<\/p>\n<p> <em>On the eve of the meeting, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky met with Kirill Budanov and <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/zelenskyy-pryznachyv-kyryla-budanova-ochilnykom-ofisu-prezydenta\/\">offered him the position of head of the Office of the President<\/a> . The purpose of the appointment is to increase attention to security, the development of the Defense Forces and the diplomatic track in negotiations. Later, it became known that <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/budanov-rozpoviv-na-chomu-zoseredytsia-v-ofisi-prezydenta\/\">Budanov accepted Zelensky&#8217;s offer<\/a> to head the Bank. He stated that he continues to serve Ukraine and considers the new position as another level of responsibility to the country.<\/em><\/p>\n<p> <em>Budanov was appointed on January 2, 2026, following the resignation of Andriy Yermak, who left office in November amid a corruption scandal. His dismissal created a long personnel pause and deprived the president of a key political coordinator during a sensitive period of negotiations to end the war with Russia.<\/em><\/p>\n<p> <em>Western journalists consider this decision to be key in view of possible negotiations with the United States and Budanov&#8217;s role in the dialogue with the American side. The New York Times emphasizes that the appointment of Kirill Budanov to the position of head of the Office of the President of Ukraine <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/pryznachennia-kyryla-budanova-ochilnykom-ofisu-prezydenta-providni-svitovi-zmi-otsinyly-novyy-politychnyy-krok\/\">was highly appreciated by the international media<\/a> . Experts emphasize his strategic role in diplomatic and security processes, as well as close and long-standing contacts with the United States.<\/em><\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Instagram<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 Materials published in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section reflect the opinion of the author of the publication, who bears full responsibility for the accuracy of the information.<\/em><\/span><br \/> <span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The editorial staff of prm.ua may not share the opinions expressed in the author&#8217;s material.<\/em><\/span><br \/> <span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The owner of the webpage in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section is the author of the publication.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Author&#8217;s Facebook page Any personnel changes during the hot phase of the war should strengthen the country&#8217;s defense capabilities and internal unity.
