    Ukrainian president confirms he’s thinking about dismissing the country’s military chief

    That doesn't sound like something one should just openly say if they don't want to get coup'd. Either just do it or shut up about it until you do.
    "Hello, guy who's in control of my military? I might or might not dismiss you, idk tho"

      You're absolutely right. Just look at him:

      Show

      If I casted a 2005 movie about a Ukrainian wartime coup I would be begging for Zelensky and this guy to play the two main roles

      Yea that strikes me as a really bad move. Why announce you're "thinking about it"? Either lock him out overnight and strip him of official power fast enough that he can't react or keep your mouth shut. Zelensky may as well be asking to be couped (not victim blaming) if he's behaving like this
