By the Numbers
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy may appoint General Sergey Sobko as the new deputy chief of general staff. This appointment could be part of a larger change in the command structure of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (VSU). General Sobko had previously openly criticized former chief of general staff Aleksandr Syrskiy.
Zelenskiy officially relieved Syrskiy of his duties on July 22 and appointed Mikhail Draphato as his replacement. The new chief of general staff had stated in a 2023 interview that Russia could not be considered a neighbor and that the Russian nation had no right to exist.
These developments are seen as part of the ongoing political and military changes in Ukraine.
