The head of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council (SNBO), Aleksey Danilov, has been relieved of his duties

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky dismissed the head of the National Security and Defense Council (SNBO), Aleksey Danilov, on Tuesday. The security chief has been known to resort to combative and abrasive rhetoric.

A relevant decree was published on the Ukrainian president’s official website. The document provided no reason for the decision.

Aleksandr Litvinenko was named as the new SNBO chief, a separate decree said. He has been at the helm of the Ukrainian foreign intelligence service since July 2021 and served as the deputy SNBO head before that.
