Andrii Sybiha has been approved as Ukraine's new foreign minister.
Ukraine's parliament has approved Andrii Sybiha, a 49-year-old former diplomat and ex-adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky, as the country's new foreign minister.
It comes as Mr. Zelensky carries out his biggest government reshuffle since Russia launched a full-scale invasion in February 2022, with a number of appointments expected over the course of today.
The shake-up has been expected for months, with much of the president's cabinet left holding office in an acting capacity after a spate of resignations and dismissals.
But critics have accused the president of seeking to centralise power around his office, with several of the new ministers having once served as his advisers.
