Mykhailo Fedorov accused commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskyi of refusing to discuss problems directly and instead “weaving intrigues behind the scenes.” Fedorov said he accepted President Zelensky’s decision not to dismiss Syrskyi and was prepared to work with him. He credited Syrskyi with helping Ukraine hold in 2022, but argued the war has changed and the military cannot move forward on old methods while drone technology changes several times within a single cycle.
Zelensky said Mykhailo Fedorov will remain on his team, with his future role to be announced later. Responding to protests, the president said people were right to demonstrate and added that the government has no secrets from society, only from Russia.
Zelensky also said Ihor Klymenko is being considered for defense minister, though no nomination has yet been submitted to parliament. He said the next minister must address mobilization and the work of recruitment centers, including finding a more respectful approach. Zelensky added that abusive forced-mobilization practices must be eliminated and said this could be one of Klymenko’s strengths.
