Mykhailo Fedorov Ukraine protests

Mykhailo Fedorov pushed his luck and lost the crowd. The former Ukraine defence minister had thousands hitting the streets after Zelenskiy fired him last month. Instead of riding that wave, Fedorov escalated by demanding elections while the war is still active. That pivot confused his base. One protester made it clear: we came here to get you your job back, not to hold elections. Public opinion aligns with that frustration. A recent poll shows 57% prefer waiting until fighting ends before voting. Parliament approved his replacement by yesterday. The massive demonstrations have shrunk to just a few dozen people. He had supporters ready to restore his position but overplayed his hand. Source: Reuters / Writer: Daniyal #MykhailoFedorov
