Latest News about Mykhailo Fedorov
Fedorov's dismissal prompted rare wartime protests in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, with citizens expressing outrage over the removal of the widely respected defence minister despite his military achievements. Parliament voted to replace him with Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko, while Zelenskyy appointed Yevhen Khmara, head of Ukraine's Security Service, as the interim defence minister.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy unexpectedly dismissed Mykhailo Fedorov from his position as Minister of Defence on 15 July 2026, after he served only six months in the role. The dismissal, part of a wider cabinet reshuffle for the new Koretskyi Government, was widely attributed to infighting between Fedorov and Chief of Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrskyi.
