Sergii Koretskyi (48) is the fourth prime minister during Zelensky’s presidency. He succeeds Yulia Svyrydenko, whose resignation was accepted by parliament on July 14, automatically triggering the resignation of the entire government.

The new prime minister was born in Lutsk and has spent most of his career in the energy sector.

Before his appointment, he headed the state-owned Naftogaz Ukraine group, and previously served as the head of Ukrnafta and Ukrtatnafta, companies that were transferred into state ownership in 2022.

According to official data, under his leadership, Ukrnafta went from being a company that recorded losses of more than around €196 million between 2013 and 2022 to becoming one of the country’s most profitable firms, generating around €784 million in net profit in 2023 and 2024.

Koretskyi previously served as CEO of the Continuum holding company and the WOG petrol station chain, while in 2019 he founded Idealist Coffee Co.

Since May 2025, he had served as chairman of the supervisory board of Naftogaz, which ended last year with revenues of around €5.32 billion, a 5.7% increase compared with 2024.

Volodymyr Zelensky submitted the proposal for his appointment to parliament on July 15, after Koretskyi had previously presented his vision for the work of the new government and the priorities of the future cabinet to lawmakers from the ruling “Servant of the People” party.
