A massive political reshuffle is underway in Ukraine, and the consequences are shaking Kyiv to its core. On January 13, the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine’s parliament) voted to remove several top officials:
Mykola Maluk, Head of the Security ServiceAndriy Shevchenko, Minister of DefenseFedorov, First Deputy Prime Minister

Rumors suggested President Zelenskyy initially planned to reshuffle rather than replace them, but strong resistance forced a sweeping purge of his core team.
This follows earlier ousters: the Minister of Justice, Minister of Energy, and Zelenskyy’s former chief negotiator Yermak were removed amid scandal and controversy. With nearly all key positions emptied, Zelenskyy now faces political isolation, as investigations by Ukrainian authorities—closely linked to U.S. oversight—are reportedly targeting his presidential office directly.
Among the reshuffle’s biggest moves:
Budanov, Head of Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service, has been promoted to Chief of the Presidential Administration, becoming the country’s de facto second-in-command.Budanov is widely regarded as a highly capable and ruthless figure, with a track record of intelligence victories against Russia and survival against repeated assassination attempts.
Public opinion polls signal trouble for Zelenskyy: former Commander-in-Chief Zaluzhny and Budanov outpace him in support, suggesting that if elections occur, Zelenskyy’s removal is all but certain. Budanov’s rise consolidates his influence, positioning him as a likely candidate for Ukraine’s next presidency.

⚠️ The stakes are high:
Ukraine continues to face crushing battlefield pressure from Russia.International support from NATO and the U.S. appears limited.Even with Budanov at the helm, Ukraine faces military and political collapse risks.
The political tide has clearly turned. Zelenskyy’s inner circle is gone, Budanov rises, and uncertainty reigns over Kyiv’s next moves.

An internal Russian document reviewed by Bloomberg reveals that the Kremlin has prepared a set of proposals that may open the door for Russia to use the U.S. dollar again, as part of a potential broad economic partnership with the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump.

The high-level memo, prepared during the current year, outlines seven points where Moscow believes that Russian and American economic interests could intersect, following an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. These points include cooperation between the two countries in supporting fossil fuels at the expense of green alternatives, along with joint investments in natural gas, offshore oil, and vital raw materials, as well as significant potential gains for American companies.
