17:43 08.02.2024 (Updated: 15:16 18.02.2024) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Last week, Ukrainian lawmaker Oleksiy Goncharenko said, citing sources, that Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhny was allegedly ordered to resign. Later, the Ukrainian Defense Ministry and President Zelensky's spokesman denied the claims.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday that he appointed Oleksand Syrsky as the new commander-in-chief of the country’s armed forces.

"I appointed Colonel General Syrsky as the commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian armed forces," Zelensky said in a video address.
Earlier in the day, Zelensky met with Valerii Zaluzhny and thanked him for service as the commander-in-chief.
Following reports of Zelensky's intention to remove Zaluzhny from his post as commander-in-chief of the armed forces, US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh reported that the Ukrainian president wanted to remove Zaluzhny from his post because of his alleged involvement in
secret talks with Western officials about pursuing a ceasefire with Russia.
