Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced that two ambassadors, Vasyl Zvarych and Vasyl Bodnar, will be appointed as deputy foreign ministers, according to European Pravda on August 3. This decision comes as part of a personnel change within the government. During a recent meeting, both ambassadors participated by asking questions.
The acting Foreign Minister, Andrii Sybiha, was consulted about these candidates' awareness of their potential return to Kyiv. In response, Sybiha mentioned that Zvarych, the ambassador to Czechia, had insider knowledge but was not formally informed yet. Zelenskyy expressed confidence in Zvarych's potential to achieve even greater success as a deputy foreign minister.
