The head of the Defense Ministry's Main Intelligence Directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, believes it is unlikely that Valeriy Zaluzhnyi's dismissal from the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces was caused by personal differences between him and Volodymyr Zelenskyi. According to him, Zelensky made the right decision by replacing Zaluzhny. Budanov said this in an interview with CBC News, reports UNN.
