President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has appointed Oksana Markarova as his advisor, entrusting her with the issues of the reconstruction Ukraine and attracting investment. He announced this on his Telegram channel.
Zelenskyy emphasized that this step is part of a broader strategy aimed at protecting and resilient Ukraine.
"From now on, Oksana Markarova will continue to help our country as my advisor on Ukraine's reconstruction and investment. We will be sure to defend our independence and Ukraine's right to be a sovereign European state. We have been ensuring Ukraine's ability to defend itself and to withstand full-scale Russian aggression on a daily basis for almost 4 years. Despite all the difficulties, we provide Ukraine with the necessary weapons, air defense systems, and sufficient resources for internal stability," the President said on Telegram.
According to Zelenskyy, there is a long-term goal to ensure that Ukraine is able to rebuild after the fighting and resume "normal economic development."
"This is a task for the government of Ukraine, all our institutions, Ukrainian business, and I believe that everyone who can help Ukraine in this should help," the President emphasized.
Decree No. 872/2025 on the appointment of Markarova as a freelance advisor to the President on reconstruction and investment has already been published on the President's website.
Markarova served as Ukraine's Ambassador to the United States from February 25, 2021 to August 27, 2025.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, last year, the Speaker of the US Congress demanded the dismissal of Ambassador Markarova and accused her of interfering in the elections.
