At a crucial juncture of the war against Russia, President Volodymyr Zelensky has undertaken a major reshuffle of his government, insisting “new energy” in government was needed “today.”

“These steps are only associated with strengthening our state in various sectors — international politics and diplomacy are no exception,” he said on Sept. 4 during a press conference in Kyiv with Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris.

While lawmakers and political analysts close to the president told the Kyiv Independent the reshuffle is a way of bringing “new energy” to a tired government apparatus, those who are critical of Zelensky say it’s more about the President’s Office, run by Andriy Yermak, willing to consolidate power even more.
