Zelensky Considers Major Military Leadership Shakeup Amid Ukraine War

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is contemplating a significant reshuffle of the country's military and political leadership, signaling a 'reset' to bolster the war effort against Russia.

Zelensky is considering the dismissal of Ukraine's top military officer, Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, as part of a broader leadership overhaul.
The potential ouster of Zaluzhnyi, a popular figure among troops and citizens, has sparked concern and debate within Ukraine and among its allies.
Zelensky's move aims to ensure the country is led by individuals 'convinced of victory' against Russia, emphasizing the need for a 'reset' in leadership direction.
The reshuffle comes as Ukraine faces ammunition and personnel shortages, with Zelensky rejecting a military request to mobilize up to 500,000 people.
The decision could impact Ukraine's military morale and its relationship with Western allies, amid ongoing Russian offensives and a stalemate on the battlefield.
