He said this at a press conference in response to questions from LB.ua.

Shmyhal is one of the important people in our government, he is the prime minister, of course, I am also discussing some things with him,” Zelensky said.

When asked for clarification about the possible dismissal of the prime minister, the president replied: “We will talk about this later.”

Donald Trump received enough votes to become the Republican Party candidate for US President, CNN reports.
As you know, the National Convention of the US Republican Party began on July 15 and will last until July 18 in Milwaukee ( Wisconsin).
Trump also announced the name of his candidate for the post of vice president. He became Ohio Senator James David Vance. Now the state governor must appoint his replacement. Vance previously argued that the US offer of $60 billion in aid to Ukraine “would not fundamentally change the reality on the battlefield.” According to him, the United States does not have the production capacity to download a sufficient amount of ammunition for Ukraine, as well as for its own needs. He called for a negotiated peace with Russia to end the war.
Trump arrived at his party convention after the July 14 assassination attempt.
