Very interesting developments in Ukraine. I can only think it is normal for a state that is at war to have very strong opinions within its government.
“One participant in the president’s meeting with lawmakers recounted Zelensky’s words this way:
They live in two different worlds. [DM] Misha wants to digitize everything, to build a system around technology. The military just wants to be heard. They ask for one category of weapons to be procured, and he refuses and funds other areas instead. They’ve simply stopped hearing each other. I can’t allow the Defense Ministry and the General Staff to be at war with each other in a country that’s at war. Ideally, I’d replace them both. But I can’t do that at the same time.”
I just hope they can keep and achieve the goal to push Russia out of Ukraine.
