Zelenskyy said that new leadership was needed after Oleksii Umerov “has gone through more than 550 days of full-scale war.”
KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Sunday that defense minister Oleksii Reznikov will be replaced this week with Rustem Umerov, a Crimean Tatar lawmaker.
“The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is well acquainted with this person, and Umerov does not require additional introductions. I expect support for this candidacy from parliament,” the president told the nation. Zelenskyy’s announcement came after two people were hospitalized following a 3½-hour Russian drone barrage Sunday on the Reni seaport in Ukraine’s Odesa region, officials said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ‘s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, described the assault as part of a Russian drive “to provoke a food crisis and hunger in the world.”
