that’s just the beginning of internal power struggles……. and a a bad sign.
West intelligence services courted alleged drug abuser .
West intelligence services historically used extremists, often turning against the benefactors .
Intelligent ppl can see the pattern .
Liberals biggest enemy is education .
Analyst did nothing but repeat everything we already know
The Atlantic council is a right wing think tank, pro war. This firing would seem to be more of a spat over who gets what from the corruption side of things. When this war kicked off some of the generals were told by the CIA to stop flaunting the spoils of war. ie. stop driving new Mercedes cars around Kiev.
It's going si well that you need to dismiss military commanders 😃
Master spin doctor……the Boss is remarkable and Ukrainian democracy is thriving, because he always responds to public and international pushback against his characteristically, re-occurring, bad decisions.
There is some political pressure / political game happening, leading to Zelensky making odd moves that turn out to be mistakes.. spat with Poland first, now dismissing those behind Ukraine’s relative success..
Great questions. But the answers are just trying to be politically correct about Z's leadership. 😂
lie lie lie…. Russia is jut in this war., why can't Ukraine agree to neutrality & democracy??
which gains?? these are just irritants. and then what??
Why never really got to bottom of why Federov got the boot. I like that this interviewee is more reserved about the success of the different things implemented by Federov–due to time, which is a pertinent consideration. Most other analysts talk about him in less nuanced terms.

This is a Western analysis, not bad. But we need more ground level cultural understanding from Ukraine.
Ukraine is effectively finished. Skirmishes cannot be called success. Escalation will only lead to more suffering for Ukraine. Use your platform to call for peace and immediate end to the conflict rather than singing their heroism whilst they suffer even more.
DEI hire😂
It is a very objective person to interview, given the colors in the background.
Ukraine saw momentum so everybody got fired for bringing that momentum 😂 make it make sense
💛🙏💙
if Ukraine wins, there's no point in firing the commander-in-chief.
Or am I missing something?
It is clear that Fedorov’s sacking was instigated by Russia. They’ve put pressure on Trump to demand this as Fedorov was too successful and endangering Putin’s standing. The choice for Zelensky was probably to either agree or say goodbye to more help from the US (including blueprints to make their own patriots for which Trump no doubt will find endless excuses to not supply them. All of course demanded by Putin which clearly has Trump in his pocket). The latest sacking falls in the same category. Putin is behind everything.
"Since Russia started this war?" There is the biggest error..Russia didn't start this war. Ukraine acting at the behest of the west fomented an illegal coup deposing a democratically elected President and beginning the "ethnic cleansing" and "genocide" of everything Russian from Ukraine from 2014 to present. Russia intervened in 2022 to protect citizens of Ukraine who spoke and are Russian. That's an adult portion of TRUTH and I'm sure you can't handle the TRUTH…
It's amazing to see while the Western media continues to spread the narrative of the victory of Ukraine, the latter is kicking out persons belonging to its top brass one after another.
