On the evening of September 5, the government's representative in parliament, Taras Melnychuk, said that the Verkhovna Rada had received submissions on the appointment of new ministers. 

At the suggestion of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, which acts as a coalition, the Prime Minister of Ukraine submitted a motion for the appointment:

  • Oleksiy Kuleba as Vice Prime Minister for the Restoration of Ukraine - Minister of Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine.
