Zelenskyy Replaces Zaluzhnyi, Ukraine’s Top General

NBC News:

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Thursday that he had replaced his top general, a dramatic shake-up of the country’s military at a crucial moment in its war against Russia.

Zelenskyy’s decision to replace Army Cmdr. Valeriy Zaluzhnyi follows days of speculation and months of reported tension between the two over strategy, as Ukraine’s counteroffensive has faltered and Kyiv’s allies have displayed growing weariness about backing its cause.

This is the birth of a future coup. Zaluzhnyi has the loyalty of the nationalists, and we have not been able to control him as we control our sock puppet Zelensky. It will be interesting to see how this fiasco plays out. What we know for certain is that Russia is still going to win this war.
