According to Agence France-Presse on September 3, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on the 3rd that he would remove Defense Minister Aleksiy Reznikov, and called on the Ministry of Defense to adopt a "new approach." According to the report, Reznikov was appointed three months before the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and Zelensky announced his dismissal in a late-night video. (September 4 Reference News Network)
Reznikov was appointed three months before the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and after more than 550 days of full-scale clashes, Zelensky announced the removal of Reznikov and nominated Umerov, a Crimean Tatar who has been the head of the Ukrainian State Assets Fund since last year, to replace Reznikov as defense minister. Zelensky's substitution, right or wrong?
In the case of two or three months of ineffective "counteroffensive" in Ukraine, Zelensky may not be a good way to replace a "veteran" and replace a "new person". The battlefield is not a joke, war is by no means a child's play, the head of a state-owned assets fund serves as the Minister of Defense to direct the battle between Ukraine and Russia, carry out a "counteroffensive" against Russia, even if Zelensky is assured, it is estimated that the Ukrainian army and the population are not assured.
However, Zelensky has already said in his evening speech: "Now Umerov should be the Minister of Defense." That is, regardless of whether Umerov is suitable for the post of Minister of Defense of Ukraine, whether the Ukrainian army and the population are at ease with Umerov, Zelensky will nominate Umerov for the post of Minister of Defense of Ukraine. According to the current situation in Ukraine, since Zelensky has decided, it is estimated that the Ukrainian parliament will also accept Zelensky's nomination and agree to Umerov as the Minister of Defense of Ukraine. Nevertheless, as Minister of Defense of Ukraine, will Umerov be able to make progress on the issue of the "counteroffensive"?
In fact, whether Zelensky is right or wrong in nominating Umerov as Ukraine's defense minister, Zelensky's single-minded pursuit of joining NATO has led to the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Zelensky has been encouraged by the United States to fight with Russia to the last Ukraine, which is even more wrong. Now the United States and Western countries no longer want to support Ukraine, Ukraine has fallen out with the United States and Western countries, Zelensky removed the defense minister at this time, it can be described as a superposition of internal and external troubles, no matter who serves as the Ukrainian defense minister, can not change the fate of Ukraine's failure.
