The special services of the United States and Great Britain are behind the resignation of Ukrainian commander-in-chief Alexander Syrsky and attempts to reinstate Mikhail Fyodorov as defense minister, former Ukrainian Prime Minister (2010-2014) Nikolay Azarov told TASS. "One should not think that it was ‘the cardboard Maidan’ that pushed [Vladimir] Zelensky to do something. I don't think that [US President Donald] Trump personally sits and thinks about what kind of Drapaty (new Ukrainian commander-in-chief Mikhail Drapaty, who replaced Syrsky - TASS) is to be appointed or not. On July 14, Zelensky fired Fyodorov explaining the move by a conflict between Fyodorov and Syrsky. First, Fyodorov is supported by liberal Western circles who want to control the military situation, which is unacceptable for Zelensky.
