Zelensky Appoints Poklad as Acting SBU Head and Beskrestnov as Tech Advisor

President Volodymyr Zelensky appointed Oleksandr Poklad as acting head of the SBU and Serhiy Beskrestnov as a presidential advisor on technological defense development. Beskrestnov declined a role in the new Ministry of Defense due to professional ties with ousted Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov. The appointments follow a government reshuffle, including Yevhen Khmara as acting defense minister and Serhiy Koretsky as prime minister.
