Syrsky commented on Fedorov’s dismissal for the first time.
Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrsky stated that he is proud that, thanks to the Kyiv Defense Operation 2022, it was possible to defend the capital of Ukraine.
He wrote about this in his telegram.
According to him, it is precisely because of this that briefings can be held in Kyiv today, government decisions can be made, and strategic visions can be formulated. Syrsky emphasized that he will continue to make every effort to ensure that such events can take place in a free and independent Ukraine.
He also noted that this requires focusing on the war and implementing an effective strategy that is already demonstrating concrete results.
Syrskyi also thanked Mykhailo Fedorov for his work as Ukraine’s Minister of Defense and wished him continued success in the Ukrainian team.
As a reminder, the Verkhovna Rada appointed Serhiy Koretsky as Prime Minister of Ukraine: 289 deputies voted in favor.
As a reminder, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy decided to dismiss Mykhailo Fedorov from his post as Minister of Defense due to a long-running conflict with the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Oleksandr Syrskyy.
As reported, Andrius Kubilius, the European Commissioner for Defence and Space, called Mykhailo Fedorov’s resignation as Ukraine’s Minister of Defence “a big surprise.”

Furthermore, Deputy Commander of the Ukrainian Air Force Pavlo Yelizarov submitted his resignation. He cited the possible resignation of Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov as the reason for his decision and warned of the risk of a rollback in air defense reforms .
