President Zelenskyy just removed Defense Minister Federov from office, in what was likely his most unpopular decision of his entire presidency. I discuss the reasons behind this decision, and present both sides of the argument, so that you can decide for yourself if this was the right move or not.

Baffling decision.
A young, dynamic and results-oriented guy gets canned for no apparent reason.
The Guardian :
“Friends of Ukraine, including the former US ambassador in Moscow, Michael McFaul, this week urged Zelenskyy to keep Fedorov in his post.”
“His six months in office coincided with a dramatic improvement in Ukraine’s position on the battlefield. Kyiv has repeatedly hit Russian oil refineries with long-range drones, embarrassing Vladimir Putin and creating nationwide fuel shortages.
In his farewell message Fedorov, 35, listed his achievements. They included disabling Starlink for Russian troops and procuring more drones, used to destroy “enemy logistics” and to isolate occupied Crimea. He said he had “radically improved” the procurement system, saving the state budget “billions of dollars”.
On the day of his departure the minister revealed Ukraine’s military had successfully tested a ballistic missile. “We fundamentally revised the technical requirements and achieved maximum accuracy. We reduced the cost by 30%. Ukraine will enter a new league,” he said.”
I have deep anger within me and have never been so disappointed with Zelensky as I am now.
Replaced for a very corrupt minister…..
