Rada prepares to consider resignation
According to Arakhamia, parliament will consider the letter at its next meeting. He thanked Yuliia Svyrydenko for her work as head of the government during a difficult period for the country.
"The Verkhovna Rada will consider Yuliia Svyrydenko’s resignation letter at its next meeting. We thank Yuliia Anatoliivna for leading the government during the most difficult times. I am confident that her experience will benefit the state wherever reinforcement is needed," he wrote.
Parliament supports change in strategy
Arakhamiia also said that the Verkhovna Rada supported the directions for changing the political strategy outlined by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He stressed that Ukraine had entered a new stage in its struggle for independence.
According to him, Ukraine needs to strengthen its internal resilience and respond more quickly to challenges, including attacks on petrol stations, shelling of border areas and strikes on infrastructure. It is also important to continue working with international partners and neighbouring countries.
Arakhamia said that some areas should be preserved, others strengthened, while some required a new foundation. According to him, parliament must provide the necessary decisions and legislative framework. He expressed confidence that the Verkhovna Rada would fulfil its tasks and that the state would become stronger.
