MOSCOW, August 11. /TASS/. Kiev no longer has its own resources to continue the conflict, and it was the reason behind the recent management reshuffle, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin told TASS.

Russia’s high-ranking diplomat was asked to voice his opinion about the internal political crisis in Ukraine and recent management reshuffles, particularly the appointment of new Commander-In-Chief, Mikhail Drapaty, and also about how it all affects the course of the conflict.

"Changing the order of the addends does not change the sum in [Ukraine’s Vladimir] Zelensky’s pockets," Galuzin said in an interview with TASS.

"The recent management reshuffle was obviously dictated by the desire of the head of the Kiev regime to retain power and control over the Western financial ‘trough.’ Ukraine has not had its own resources to continue the conflict for a long time," he noted.
