Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Ukraine's top general on Friday and told him it's time for someone new to lead the army.
In a post on X, Zelenskyy said he thanks Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi for his two years of service and discussed possible replacements for the top military job. “The time for such a renewal is now," Zelenskyy said.
The statement comes following day of speculation spurred by local media reports that Zelenskyy would sack Zaluzhnyi, a move that would amount to the most serious shakeup of the top military brass since the full-scale invasion.
