Who is Mykhailo Fedorov? The minister behind Ukraine's drone-first military strategy
Ukrainian Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov confirmed his departure amid tensions with military leadership, particularly General Oleksandr Syrskyi, who he accused of undermining unity in the country. Fedorov, known for his innovative 'Army of Drones' initiative and direct procurement program, stated he will continue to pursue his mission of defeating the enemy through asymmetry and innovation. His exit has sparked protests in support of his leadership, although President Zelensky has not publicly explained the decision or named a successor.
