According to him, the most likely candidate for the position of Prime Minister remains Serhiy Koretsky, the head of Naftogaz of Ukraine, and the changes may take place in the coming days.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M9JwicqMa-Y\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">talked<\/a> about this in his YouTube video.<\/p>\n<p> According to Zheleznyak, the decision to change the government came as a surprise even to government officials. He claims that the final decision was made after a meeting between President Volodymyr Zelensky and his inner circle.<\/p>\n<p> The People&#8217;s Deputy confirmed that Yulia Svyrydenko is leaving the post of Prime Minister and, according to him, may be appointed as Ukraine&#8217;s ambassador to the United States. In this case, the current ambassador, Olga Stefanishyna, will leave her post.<\/p>\n<p> Zheleznyak also reported that before making a decision on the new head of government, the president held meetings with 4 potential candidates:<\/p>\n<ul><\/p>\n<li> Chairman of Naftogaz of Ukraine Serhiy Koretsky;<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li> First Deputy Prime Minister &#8211; Minister of Energy Denys Shmyhal;<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li> Minister of Defense Mikhail Fedorov;<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li> Mayor of Kharkiv Igor Terekhov.<\/li>\n<p><\/ul>\n<p> At the same time, according to the deputy, the most likely candidate remains Serhiy Koretsky.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;According to my information, I think 99% that it has already been decided. There remains a small intrigue, but it will be Serhiy Koretsky,&#8221; Zheleznyak said.<\/p>\n<p> According to the MP, the final composition of the new Cabinet of Ministers has not yet been determined, but a more extensive update is expected than a simple change of prime minister.<\/p>\n<p> Zheleznyak suggested that the Verkhovna Rada could consider the issue of Yulia Svirydenko&#8217;s resignation as early as Tuesday. After that, the president should nominate a new prime minister, and the new head of government will propose the composition of the Cabinet of Ministers.<\/p>\n<p> Separately, the MP stated that personnel changes may affect not only the government. According to him, the president announced changes in the law enforcement bloc, but there is currently no confirmed information regarding specific positions.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;I have no confirmation that these replacements will be complete. So far, from everything I&#8217;ve heard, we&#8217;re talking about the head of the SBU,&#8221; Zheleznyak noted.<\/p>\n<p> At the same time, the deputy emphasized that, according to his information, there are enough votes in the Verkhovna Rada to appoint a new government, and all personnel decisions can be made during the plenary week <strong>of July 14-16<\/strong> .<\/p>\n<p> As is known, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a change in the state&#8217;s political strategy and <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/svyrydenko-yde-u-vidstavku-zelenskyy-anonsuvav-masshtabni-kadrovi-zminy-v-uriadi\/\">announced personnel changes in the government and law enforcement agencies<\/a> . According to him, the update should ensure the implementation of new domestic and foreign policy priorities.<\/p>\n<p> It is worth adding that after the resignation of Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko, a new head of government has not yet been officially determined. According to MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/kadrovi-zminy-v-uriadi-khto-mozhe-staty-novym-prem-ier-ministrom-ukrainy\/\">4 possible candidates for the position of Prime Minister are currently being considered.<\/a><\/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:\/\/x.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">X<\/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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak has released new details regarding the preparation of personnel changes in the government following the announced resignation of Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko.
