Ukraine’s defence minister has been dismissed with presidentVolodymyr Zelensky saying it is time for “new approaches”.
Oleksii Reznikov has led the ministry since before Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022 but will soon be replaced by Rustem Umerov, who runs the state property fund. The reshuffle had been expected with Mr Reznikov last week telling reporters that he was exploring other positions with the Ukrainian president.
