President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced the creation of the Ministry of Unification of Ukrainians to strengthen the policy towards Ukrainians abroad.
He said this at the presentation of the Resilience Plan in the Verkhovna Rada, Ukrainian News Agency reports.
"Ukraine needs an institutional strengthening of the policy towards Ukrainians abroad, towards our people from all waves of migration. We must create a central executive body - the Ministry of Unification of Ukrainians, which will deal with the affairs of the global multi-million Ukrainian community - not among other things, but purposefully. And by the end of the year we will present the candidacies of the minister for approval," he said.
Zelenskyy emphasized that Ukraine needs a restart of the diplomatic service.
According to him, the changes will also take place by the end of this year.
"This concerns various aspects of our diplomacy, including financial and personnel. We are currently working on this together with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. By the end of the year, replacements will be made in the corps of Ukrainian ambassadors. We pay special attention to the G7 countries, and we will also fill all vacancies of Ukrainian ambassadors - all by the end of the year," he added.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, a military ombudsman will appear in Ukraine.
