Zelensky has'questions to answer' about corruption in his government, sacked minister tells BBC To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has questions to answer about corruption in his government, his sacked defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov has told the BBC. Fedorov, a popular minister who modernised the armed forces and pioneered drone warfare, was fired last month after reportedly falling out with the head of Ukraine's armed forces. He told the BBC a money laundering investigation announced last week raised questions about Zelensky's awareness of potential corruption in his inner circle. Fedorov also reiterated that democracy should not be the hostage of Putin - but stopped short of declaring his own political ambitions days after he posted a video calling for elections in Ukraine. Supporters have protested on Kyiv's streets weekly since he was sacked, calling on the president to reinstate him.
