On 4 September, several Ukrainian ministers resigned from their posts as part of a wide-ranging reshuffle of the Ukrainian cabinet. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on the changes and said that the government needs "new energy" ahead of his briefing with Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris.
