Flush with a strong showing in Sunday’s Rada vote, President Zelenskiy said he would choose as Prime Minister a “professional economist” who hasn’t held that job or led a party. That fits the description of former Finance Minister Oleksandr Danylyuk, who has expressed interest in the post. Zelenskiy also said he would reach out to Svyatoslav Vakarchuk, the country’s most popular rock singer, to form a pro-Western government for Ukraine in August.
