Ukrainian President Zelenskiy said he and former defense minister Mykhailo
Fedorov split after the defense ministry supplied incorrect information that
left him embarrassed before U.S. President Trump, and that he dismissed Fedorov
in July. At a roughly two-hour press conference on July 22 (transcript released
July 23) Zelenskiy said he had been "very positive" about Fedorov but that
Fedorov "went down the wrong path, or was pushed onto it."
