Ukraine’s new commander-in-chief has been picking technical chiefs. Adviser who knows them says he is putting most competent people
Serhii Beskrestnov says he knows most of the army's technical specialists and rates the new appointments.
Ukrainian president Mykhailo Drapatyi is known for selecting the most competent individuals for the technical roles within his staff, according to Serhii Flash Beskrestnov, a former Ukrainian Defense Minister. Drapatyi, who took on the role of commander-in-chief after replacing Oleksandr Syrskyi in July, has emphasized the importance of having energetic, modern, and good communicators in the rapidly evolving technology war.
Beskrestnov, who has been an adviser to Zelenskyy, rates the new appointees not only on their technical expertise but also on their temperament and communication skills. The recent personnel changes have drawn criticism, as the removal of former minister Fedorov led to protests in Ukraine. However, Drapatyi expects that significant positive changes will take time, as a great deal of restructuring must occur.
