Today, the Ukrainian Parliament voted to reappoint Andrii Sybiha as Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.

Under the leadership of the Minister, the diplomatic team will continue advancing Ukraine’s national interests on the global stage, consolidating international support to end Russia’s war, restore a just and lasting peace, and ensure that the Russian Federation is held accountable.

We will continue strengthening Ukraine’s Security and Defence Forces and using diplomacy to increase pressure on Russia. Our priorities are enhancing the protection of Ukraine’s sky against ballistic attacks and strengthening the resilience of our energy system ahead of the winter.

We will continue to stand united by protecting the rights of our citizens abroad and helping preserve their ties to Ukraine and their national identity. We will advance Ukraine’s integration into the EU and NATO, cement Ukraine’s new geopolitical role as a security partner and contributor, and develop pragmatic, good-neighbourly relations with our partners. We will work to strengthen the resilience of Ukraine’s economy and ensure the continuity of food exports amid ongoing challenges.

We will work together and stand firmly behind every decision that serves Ukraine and its national interests.

Glory to Ukraine!
