who had very crude tactics, a very divisive figure within the army.
And these clashes got worse and worse.
So, for example, Fedorov as defense minister would say, you have to consolidate your best brigades and make sure that they're located along the same points on the front.
Sersky split them up and put them at different points on the front.
Fedorov tried to channel resources towards those units and brigades that were doing the most interesting things with technology.
And he would find that Sersky had basically taken some of those units and put them into assault regiments, which had the highest casualties.
So again and again, there was an enormous personality clash, but I think much more importantly, a culture clash between this young reformist minister and an army that he saw as blocking him and obstructing him at every turn.
No, I don't think it does.
First of all, Fedorov is still sacked.
He doesn't have his old job back.
Zelensky's been considering other candidates for that job, including the interior minister.
He seems to have offered Fedorov other roles, you know, some sort of roles overseeing procurement or technology.
And Fedorov realises, I think, that he has leverage here.

He secured the sacking of the army chief here, who was his sort of nemesis.
And so there's an opportunity here for him to perhaps rest his job back.

The other question is Sersky's successor, who is Mihailo Drapati.
And he has been responsible for Ukrainian defenses in the northeast of the country.
