"Of course, I hear what people are saying. I talked for a long time today with Mykhailo Fedorov. I also talked today with Oleksandr Syrsky. Decisions on the army will be worked out," Zelensky said in an evening speech.

After his resignation, Fedorov has questioned the leadership style of Ukrainian military commander Oleksandr Syrsky, which he describes as old-fashioned and Soviet.

Thousands of protesters gathered in Kyiv on Saturday, for the third day in a row, demanding that the decision to impeach Fedorov be overturned, Kyiv Independent reports.

“Change is inevitable,” Fedorov writes on social media on Saturday evening and continues:

“The dialogue is ongoing. I believe we will succeed.”
