What Zelensky risks by firing Ukraine’s tech-minded defense minister

The dismissal of Ukraine’s tech-savvy Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov by President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 15 has raised eyebrows, especially considering Fedorov's crucial role in leveraging drones and software for military advantage. This move could impact Ukraine's innovative strategies against larger conventional armies, potentially undermining the lessons learned from its tech-driven defense. For the U.S., this shift might affect future military aid and partnerships, as Ukraine's tech efforts have been a significant case study in modern warfare. Zelensky’s decision underscores the delicate balance between traditional military leadership and tech innovation.
