Zelensky appoints Markarova as Advisor on Rebuilding and Investments
As reported by Ukrinform, the head of state announced this on Facebook.
“Starting today, Oksana Markarova will continue supporting our state as my Advisor on Rebuilding and Investments. We will certainly defend our independence and Ukraine’s right to be a sovereign European state. We are ensuring Ukraine’s ability to defend itself and, for almost four years now, to resist full-scale Russian aggression on a daily basis. Despite all challenges, we continue to provide Ukraine with the necessary weapons, air defense systems, and sufficient resources for internal resilience,” Zelensky said.
According to him, alongside the fundamental goal of defending independence and the daily struggle for Ukraine’s survival, there is a longer-term objective: to ensure the country’s ability to rebuild after hostilities and restore normal economic development. “This is a task for the Government of Ukraine, all our institutions, and Ukrainian business, and I believe that everyone who can help Ukraine in this effort should do so,” Zelensky emphasized.
“I am glad that Oksana remains part of our state’s team, and her responsibilities will now include advising on issues that strengthen Ukraine, namely: improving the business climate, enhancing our state’s financial resilience, attracting investment, and planning reconstruction together with our strategic partners. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine! Zelensky said.
Decree No. 872/2025 appointing Oksana Markarova as the President’s non-staff Advisor on Rebuilding and Investments was published on the presidential website.
As reported, Oksana Markarova served as Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United States from February 25, 2021, to August 27, 2025.
