President Zelensky on the reasons for Fedorov's dismissal:
"Without me, the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and the military were not communicating. I very much wanted to see unity. They couldn't find it. And that's not only their responsibility—it's mine as well. I'm not avoiding responsibility. As I told you, I respect both sides. I know their strengths, I know their weaknesses, and I wanted them to strengthen Ukraine together. But things turned out the way they did," the President said.
