KYIV: Ukrainian lawmakers will vote on a new wartime government on Thursday amid popular protests over the dismissal of reformist Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov at a critical point in Kyiv's conflict with Moscow.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's second cabinet shake-up in a year has focused public anger over his exclusion of Fedorov, a 35-year-old tech expert who has aimed to reshape Kyiv's outmanned army into a more efficient fighting force.
