Yuliia Svyrydenko is the new prime minister of Ukraine after being confirmed Thursday by the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament.

Yulia Svyrydenko has represented Ukraine in a wide range of high-level talks with Western partners, including on issues of defense and economic recovery and reconstruction.

At home, however, the Cabinet recalibration has not been seen as a major shift, as the Ukrainian leader continues to rely on officials who have proven their effectiveness and loyalty during the war, now in its fourth year.
