President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that he has not held any discussions with Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal regarding the possible resignation of the government.

The head of state shared this with journalists, as reported by an Ukrinform correspondent.

“Let me be clear, if I had decided to completely change the Prime Minister, I would first inform him—certainly before telling journalists. After all, we’ve been working together for many years. So no, I haven’t had that conversation,” President Zelensky stated.
