Which is something that matches the Churchill comparisons as Churchill at points also meddles and made decisions that impacted negatively the war, e.g. his interference in the North African military operations.
@PortugueseFella 👆
As for me, that posted several tweets (a thread) and replies about Fedorov's dismissal, I based it on the opinion of several Ukrainians (and other people whose opinion I respect) I encountered here and also don't see it "crying about".
👇
@PortugueseFella 👆 and although I respect Zelenskyy and think he did great, in particular his "public relations" and "morale" actions as he excels on that having been a successful comedian, I also think he is flawed and made mistakes (like many others)
👇
@PortugueseFella 👆 all in all, except if you are only talking to the pro-🇺🇦 crowd like NAFO, this message can be considered criticism towards Ukrainian civil society, at least those who strongly disagree with Zelenskyy's decision.
👇
@PortugueseFella 👆you made in a reply.
I also know that the fact one person is on the inside doesn't necessarily mean that person knows better than all on the outside.
But Ukrainians also know about a side of their internal politics that we don't.
👇
@PortugueseFella I don't know about your feed, but in mine the crying is largely by Ukrainians so thisessage might be perceived as a foreigner telling Ukrainians what they should, or should not, do.
And that appears as condescending, even though I understand your point about common people 👇
@NAFOteacher What time is the speech and would I be able to play the game live considering I'm not in the US (maybe nomaccess to live coverage by the TV channels)?
I suppose I would need a card and just shout "BINGO" once it completes, right? Like in a real bingo...
@dipapip@hfidbeos@IAPonomarenko Article 115 (if Im.not mistaken) of the constitution says that the entire cabinet is out when the PM resigns so new ones need to be appointed, although the previous ones can be re-appointed.
One problem in this case is that Def. and For. Aff. are appointed by the president.
@TippiYogi Wow, a teleprompter making bets on speeches that he has access too and winning!
Who would've thought?!?!?!
Seriously, this predictions betting things like Polymarket need to be heavily regulated for the sake of humankind...
I didn't forget about Operation "MoLoChKa" (an acronym derived from Ukrainian meaning "Moscow Will Fall Because of Crimea. Amen") that last night hit 11 ships, 1 of them in the Sea of Azov even though they are now focusing on the Black Sea.
Just see 👇 for the details and video
Admiral Magyar's update:
+11⚓️🔥 Shadow fleet vessels hunted by the Birds of the Unmanned Systems Forces on 16 July (10 in the Black Sea, 1 in the Sea of Azov): 5 oil tankers, 1 LNG tanker, 3 cargo vessels and 2 tugboats.
During Operation “MoLoChKa” by the Unmanned Systems Forces, from 6 to 16 July, 147 vessels of russia’s shadow fleet were struck.
By sea:
117⚓️ vessels – Sea of Azov
30⚓️ vessels – Black Sea.
Objective: to paralyze the logistics of oil, fuel, and cargo transported in circumvention of sanctions. To turn every self-propelled vessel into a drifting barge, blind and deaf; the goal is not to pollute the sea with oil spills, therefore no hull breaches.
Today’s selection, 16 July:
🔥5 oil tankers, Black Sea and Sea of Azov, 9th Battalion “Kairos”, 414th USF Brigade “Magyar’s Birds”, 1st Separate Center, USF, 20th USF Brigade “K-2”
🔥1 LNG tanker, Black Sea, 1st Separate Center, USF
🔥3 cargo vessels, Black Sea, 9th Battalion “Kairos”, 414th USF Brigade “Magyar’s Birds”
🔥2 tugboats, Black Sea, 1st Separate Center, USF
We will stand.
Moscow will fall, MoLoChKa⚓️is in action.
Crimea will be fed back up and rebuilt.

Haven't seen in the posts covering Fedorov's press-conference any remarks about the offer for Prime Minister position...
I suspect more will be said and published about this in the next hours/days.
The same person admits that Fedorov was a great minister and seems to agree (because quote-tweeted that opinion) that it doesn't appear to be any valid reasons to not keep Fedorov as Defence Minister.
So I'm yet to find any negative opinion of Fedorov in my feed!
Curiously I've only encountered one tweet defending/supporting Zelenskyy after the dismissal of Fedorov and the person is not Ukrainian but lives (and fights) in 🇺🇦 from my feed.
I've also seen a reply saying all ministers are fine by law when the PM resigns, missing the point.
I can't close the door on this story just yet, so sharing here more information, namely that there was indeed a conflict with the C-in-C Syrskyi that appears to be the one responsible for Fedorov not continuing as Defence Minister.
I've been watching Fedorov's live press conference, where he is openly discussing both the problems and the conflict. To summarize it briefly, he confirmed that there is a disagreement with Syrskyi, as they hold different views on certain reforms and changes:
