Ukraine Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba submits resignation amid war, Zelensky's government shake-up

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba submitted his resignation Wednesday becoming the latest top official under President Volodymyr Zelensky to depart during the war with Russia.

Parliament Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk said Kuleba's resignation will be under consideration at the next plenary meeting, which has yet to be scheduled. 

Kuleba has been in his position since 2020.

Deputy Prime Ministers Iryna Vereshchuk and Olga Stefanishyna and the head of Ukraine's State Property Fund, Vitaliy Koval, also stepped down Tuesday, according to a Ukrainian news outlet.

In addition, the ministers for Strategic Industries, Justice and Environmental Protection have resigned.

The war is now roughly two-and-a-half years old, and Zelensky continued to try to make changes, and get funding from allies, to repel the Russian invasion.
