Ukrainian foreign minister resigns amid major government reshuffle

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba resigned on Wednesday amid a major government reshuffle that could see half of the cabinet changed 30 months into the Russian invasion.

Kuleba’s resignation is the latest in a series of high-profile departures, which have so far included Oleksandr Kamyshin, who oversaw weapons production, and the justice, environmental, and reintegration ministers.

In an evening address on Tuesday, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the government “needed to be reconfigured so that Ukraine achieves all the results we need” ahead of a US visit next month.
