Ukraine's Leadership Shake-Up

Why would a president replace one of his most popular ministers in the middle of a war? In this episode of What Just Happened?, Samuel McVicar is joined by Sibylline's Eurasia Intelligence Analyst Karan Vassil to examine President Zelensky's controversial dismissal of Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov and what it reveals about Ukraine's political and military landscape. The discussion explores the reforms that made Fedorov one of the country's most prominent wartime figures, why his removal has triggered rare public protests and what the appointment of a new defence minister could mean for military operations, civil military relations and Ukraine's broader reform agenda.   Join the Sibylline Media mailing list: https://mailchi.mp/sibylline.co.uk/podcastsignup   If you enjoyed this episode, let us know by liking, subscribing or leaving a review.
