“Ukraine’s prime minister announced his resignation Tuesday in the first formal step of what is expected to be a significant reshuffle of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s government, which could also see the country’s ambassador to Washington replaced. ‘I am tendering my resignation from the post of the Prime Minister of Ukraine,’ Denys Shmyhal wrote in a letter posted on his Telegram page. Zelenskyy said Monday that he has offered Shmyhal’s job to 39-year-old Yuliia Svyrydenko, who is currently deputy prime minister and the country’s first female economy minister. Svyrydenko played a key role in negotiating a U.S.–Ukraine mineral agreement.” (07/15/25)
