The Ukrainian army has a fresh leader – the reins have been taken over by 43-year-old General Mykhailo Drapaty. Gen. Roman Polko assesses this decision unequivocally: the change is good, as long as politicians do not interfere with him. However, in the background of the appointment, there are sharp words about a “scandal” and behind-the-scenes intrigues in Kyiv that hit the erstwhile command.
