President Zelensky has fired Ukraine's commander in chief hoping to settle days of street protests across the country.
Protests broke out last week when Zelensky fired the country's popular defense minister Mykhailo [music].
Fedorov. The 35-year-old was seen as a young transforming force in the ministry who was leading a drive against corruption.
It's thought he was fired because of a conflict with Oleksandr Syrskyi, the 60-year-old Soviet school commander perceived as reluctant to make changes in the military. Now it appears Zelensky has bowed to public pressure, removed Syrskyi, and promised Fedorov another senior role in government.
