US, UK Discussed Zelensky’s Replacement with Top Ukrainian Officials: Russian Foreign Intel
17:36 29.07.2025 (Updated: 17:56 29.07.2025) Representatives from the US and the UK recently organized a meeting in the Alps, attended by Yermak, Budanov, and Zaluzhny, to discuss the prospects of replacing Zelensky, according to Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service.
"According to information received by the SVR, not long ago, representatives from the US and the UK organized a secret meeting in a resort area in the Alps, with the participation of Head of the Ukrainian President's Office A. Yermak, Head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense’s Intelligence Directorate K. Budanov*, and former Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Ukraine's Ambassador to London V. Zaluzhny," the statement said.
"The prospects of replacing Zelensky as the head of the Kiev regime were discussed. Zelensky’s replacement has, in essence, become a key condition for the 'reset' of relations between Kiev and Western partners, primarily Washington, and for the continuation of Western assistance to Ukraine in its confrontation with Russia," the statement said.
Yermak and Budanov secured promises from the Anglo-Saxon countries to maintain their current positions after Zelensky's replacement, the statement reads.
The US and the UK want to nominate Zaluzhny for the position of President of Ukraine.
"The Americans and the Brits have announced their decision to nominate Zaluzhny for the post of President of Ukraine. Yermak and Budanov 'saluted the decision.' They also secured promises from the Anglo-Saxons to maintain their current positions and to take their interests into account when making other personnel decisions," the SVR statement concluded.
