Yulia Svyrydenko has been approved as Ukraine's new prime minister, tasked with streamlining ministries during wartime. The cabinet includes key figures like Andrii Sybiha, Serhii Marchenko, and rising leaders Mykhailo Fedorov and Denys Shmyhal.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy named Yulia Svyrydenko, the former economy minister, as the country’s new head of government earlier this week. The 39-year-old was the key negotiator of Ukraine's deal with the US to partner on the development of minerals, seen as an important way of tying Washington's interests to Kyiv’s security.
