History
2019: Government trust level among lowest in the world
2014: Inviting Foreigners to the Government
The first foreigners in the Ukrainian government appeared in December 2014. Since foreigners, according to the law, cannot yet hold posts in the government, expats are quickly given Ukrainian citizenship.
Alexander Kvitashvili, a native of Saakashvili's cabinet, became Minister of Health (he was once educated in America, and then headed a similar department under the former Georgian president for a couple of years).
The Treasury Secretary is US citizen Natalie Yaresko, who in the 1990s managed to work in the economic bureau of the US Department of State and spent 20 years in Ukraine[1].
The Ministry of Economic Development was headed by an entrepreneur from Lithuania Aivaras Abromavicius. He headed two investment funds - East Capital Russian Fund and East Capital Eastern European Fund, which, according to the results of five years, showed negative income. Having barely taken the post of minister, Aivaras Abromavicius promised to disband the economic department. When he was reminded of this, he smiled and hinted that he was excited. But he is seriously reducing the apparatus and has already dismissed the main old-timer of the government - his deputy Valery Pyatnitsky, who has worked in the government since the time of the President of Ukraine Leonid Kuchma. Abromavicius first wanted to reduce the device by 20%, and then by 30%. At the same time, his main task is much more difficult: he must cut spending at the national level and carry out unpopular reforms of the pension system and state oil and gas monopolies, reducing their energy subsidies.
One thing unites the ministers: they have never worked in the system of Ukrainian power.
At a special press conference, the Minister of Justice of Ukraine Pavel Petrenko lined up four expats - future subordinates and former Georgian officials. While he represents them, Georgians are standing and modestly silent: in Ukrainian, none of them understands.

State Registration Service head candidate Jaba Ebanoidze has yet to even learn his local phone number. In Ukraine, Jaba is less than a week old, but already understands how to simplify the procedure for registering real estate: he passed the experience of reforming the system in Georgia. In Georgia, as in many European countries, all information about real estate can be found out without leaving home - via the Internet; journalists are using this with might and main, bringing Georgian officials to clean water. "We're not going to copy the Georgian model," Ebanoidze explains. "We just have some accumulated experience that can be useful in Ukraine."
