The head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has resigned. What are the reasons?
By Wednesday at the latest, Dmytro Kuleba, the head of Ukrainian diplomacy, has submitted his resignation to the Verkhovna Rada. It was he who recently started a storm in Poland (during the Polish Future Campus), combining the genocide in Volhynia and Operation Vistula.
– Kułeba’s resignation had nothing to do with his statements in Poland. I first heard about the possible resignation of the head of the Foreign Ministry a year ago. At that time, Kułeba himself admitted that he had failed to carry out some of the president’s orders. Among other things, he failed to create an international tribunal for Russia. Our partners want such a tribunal to be created by Ukraine with the participation of other countries and institutions. And the president wants it to be a new Nuremberg, Volodymyr Fesenko, a leading political scientist from Kyiv, tells Rzeczpospolita.
According to him, the fact that Ukraine has not received a sufficient number of air defense systems and the fact that the US has not yet lifted restrictions on the use of its long-range missiles on Russian territory could have contributed to Kuleba’s resignation. The current foreign minister will be replaced by Andrij Sibiga, the current deputy head of the Foreign Ministry.
