Фёдоров начал принудительную проверку чиновников министерства на полиграфе. Все, кто не прошёл или отказался, уволили. Также, перевёл значительную долю военных контрактов на прозрачные открытые тендеры, что моментально сбило закупку дефицитных 155-мм артснарядов на 16%.
Here's what a senior Ukrainian government source, someone part of Zelenskky's inner circle, told me about Fedorov back in November, before he was appointed Minister of Defense:
“He’s the only guy who has a war plan. He wants to change the high command. He wants to replace them with young people who have proved themselves through performance, so that ordinary people understand these are not Soviet Union people, they are commanders who care about people’s lives.”
