Mustafa Nayyem, head of Ukraine's State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development, has resigned following his ban from attending the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Berlin. Nayyem cited systemic obstacles and internal political bickering as reasons for his departure, which he claims have jeopardized the war effort and led to the systematic dismantling of his agency. His resignation, announced on Facebook on June 10, comes just a day before the showcase conference for donors, raising concerns about the prioritization of Ukraine's recovery efforts.
