The Cabinet of Ministers has appointed Tetiana Berezhna as the provisional Minister of Culture and Information Policy.

Prime Minister of Ukraine Yuliia Svyrydenko announced this on Telegram.

Prior to her new appointment, Berezhna worked as her deputy at the Ministry of Economy, where she was responsible for the sphere of labor, employment, integration of veterans into the labor market, and gender equality in wages.

Now her main task will be to ensure adequate financing of Ukrainian culture in wartime conditions.

Former Minister of Culture and Strategic Communications Mykola Tochytskyi stated that the Director General of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra National Reserve, Maksym Ostapenko, was dismissed due to insufficient effectiveness in implementing the law banning the activities of religious organizations affiliated with russia in Ukraine.
