Episode Notes:

Last week's surprise dismissal of highly popular Minister of Defense Mykhailo Fedorov spurred public protests and a host of government resignations. Fedorov is credited with greatly advancing Ukraine's autonomous weapons and long-range strike capabilities, as well as forging strong relationships with Western tech investors and defense companies. Peter Dickinson joins Nicole to unpack why the removal happened, what it means for the war, and more pressing questions about how people will view Zelensky's wartime governance going forward.
