Ukraine Plunges into Political Crisis as Anger Over Defense Minister's Dismissal Grows The protests unfolding in Ukraine over the past week are not just about the dismissal of Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov but also a symptom of a deeper issue – the tension between tradition and innovation in the country's military.

However, his methods were also criticized as too reckless and outside the norms of traditional military strategy.
