Full list of Ukrainian deputy ministers removed from their posts
As MEZIESBLOG reported earlier, Ukraine’s deputy defence minister Hanna Maliar has been dismissed from her post.
Five other deputy ministers were also let go by the Ukrainian government, and their names have just been published by parliament official Taras Melnychuk.
He named them as:
- Volodymyr Valerianovych Gavrilov – deputy defence minister
- Rostyslav Teodoziyovych Zamlynskyi – deputy defence minister
- Denis Oleksandrovich Sharapov – deputy defence minister
- Shevchenko Andrii Vitaliyovych – deputy minister of defence of Ukraine for European integration
- Deinega Vitaly Olegovich – deputy minister of defence of Ukraine for digital development, digital transformations and digitisation

The government has not given a reason for its decisions, but the changes have been made after Volodymyr Zelenskyy appointed Rustem Umerov to replace Oleksii Reznikov as defence minister earlier this month.
