President Volodymyr Zelensky has announced plans to reshuffle the leadership of Ukraine's Armed Forces (AFU) alongside Commander-in-Chief Mykhailo Drapatyi. This move, announced in a video address on Nov. 6, is part of broader efforts to adjust Ukraine's military and diplomatic posture ahead of winter. The president did not disclose which commands or senior officers will be affected by the forthcoming changes, but emphasized that Ukraine is coordinating with partners to ensure peace and called for support from the Nordic-Baltic Eight (NB8) group.
The diplomatic outreach comes as Ukrainian, American, and Russian delegations prepare for working-level consultations in Abu Dhabi on Nov. 10-11, marking the first direct diplomatic contacts mediated by Washington since February.
