Dmytro Koziatynskyi, a veteran, activist, and protest organizer, called for the rallies in Kyiv and other cities to continue starting Friday, July 24.
This was reported by the Mykhailo Fedorov Support Community (MFS).
The protests will begin on July 24 and will take place daily. The main demand is to reinstate Mykhailo Fedorov as Minister of Defense.
According to Koziatynsky, following the dismissal of Oleksandr Syrskyi from his post as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the appointment of Mykhailo Drapatyi, the conflict between the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff has disappeared. In his opinion, this removes the obstacles to Fedorov’s reinstatement.
The Ministry needs reforms, and with Syrskyi’s dismissal, the conflict between the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff has disappeared, so I see no reason not to reinstate Fedorov to his post

The next protest will take place on July 24 at 8:00 p.m. on Ivan Franko Square in Kyiv, as well as in the central squares of other cities across Ukraine.
We will take to the streets every day and stay there for as many days as it takes for the authorities to hear us

As a reminder, we previously reported on the ongoing protests in Kyiv over Fedorov’s resignation.
Fedorov also responded to Drapatyi’s appointment and outlined his main expectations.
In addition, Zelenskyy had previously offered Fedorov a new position in the government.
