Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - KYIV — Ukraine's parliament approved Andrii Sybiha as the new foreign minister on Thursday, as President Volodymyr Zelenskyy aims to revitalize his administration during a critical phase of the ongoing war against Russia.

Sybiha, 49, who previously served as Ukraine’s ambassador to Turkey and as deputy to outgoing Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, steps into the role during a time of heightened tensions and strategic shifts.

The appointment is part of a broader government overhaul by Zelenskyy, who has called for “new energy” as Ukraine approaches what could be a decisive period in the conflict.

This shake-up marks the most significant reorganization of top officials since Russia’s invasion began in February 2022, with changes expected in key ministries, including strategic industries, justice, natural resources, and agriculture.

Ukrainian lawmakers Yaroslav Zhelezniak and Oleksii Honcharenko confirmed the parliamentary vote to The Associated Press. The changes reflect Zelenskyy’s push to strengthen his administration as the war surpasses 900 days, with winter approaching and the conflict evolving on multiple fronts.

Ukraine’s power grid remains severely strained following repeated Russian missile and drone strikes, which have damaged around 70% of the country’s energy generation capacity, posing significant challenges for the coming winter months.

On the battlefield, Ukraine continues to balance its surprise incursions into Russian-held territory with efforts to withstand Russian advances in the east.

Sybiha’s appointment comes amid ongoing efforts to keep Western allies committed to supporting Ukraine’s war effort.

As the country navigates the complexities of war, maintaining strong international backing is crucial, especially in light of the upcoming U.S. election, which could potentially impact American policy toward Ukraine.

The reshuffle signals Zelenskyy’s readiness to make bold decisions to adapt to the evolving landscape of the war, even if it means replacing key figures in his administration.

With Sybiha now at the helm of Ukraine’s diplomatic efforts, the country will continue to seek more air defense systems and expanded permissions to use Western weapons against Russian targets, a contentious request among some of Ukraine’s allies.

Meanwhile, Ukraine's leadership remains focused on securing the resources and support necessary to weather the challenges ahead, with discussions among top U.S. and European military officials set to continue in Germany. — Agencies
