“To appoint Olga Mykolaivna Kuryshko as the permanent representative of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea,” the document states.
It is known that Kuryshko was educated at the National Law Academy of Ukraine named after Yaroslav the Wise. She worked as a lawyer in the private, public and public sectors, in particular at KrymSOS.
Kuryshko joined the representation team in December 2021. She participated in the development of strategic documents related to the reintegration of Crimea, and also worked on legal acts protecting the rights of residents of the occupied peninsula.
In June 2023, Kuryshko was appointed to the position of deputy presidential envoy to Crimea, and in December 2024 – to at. representative of the president.
“In her new position, Olga Kuryshko, together with the team of the Representation, will continue to implement the initiatives that have already been started and will work to strengthen the body in its key mission – the deoccupation of Crimea, the protection of the rights of its residents, the indigenous peoples of Ukraine, and support for reintegration processes,” the Representation noted.
Earlier, in December 2024, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, dismissed Tamila Tasheva from the position of his permanent representative in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. She has held this position since April 2022.
Tasheva’s dismissal was due to the fact that she will take the place of a people’s deputy. The Central Election Commission has already registered her and Bohdan Lukashuk as parliamentarians.
