Viktor Baloha replaced by Vera Ulyanchenko as head of the presidential secretariat. Ulyanchenko leaves her position as governor of the Kyiv Oblast, where she as been for three years. She is seen as a close ally of the president and is now also head of Our Ukraine. Baloha was a major behind the scenes player in the secretariat, but was seen as a practitioner of black PR. One deputy from OU-PSD has already criticized the former head's political style. Baloha said after his dismissal that the president "lacks the moral right" to be a presidential candidate.
- If the break with the president is genuine, than perhaps he will work with Arsen Yatsenyuk?. The ex-speaker needs a good political manager; however Baloha will not be able to bring the administrative resources now that his dismissed (if the break is genuine).
- Will Ulyanchenko's bring stability and a more civil tone to the secretariat?
