Zelensky meets with Maliuk to discuss candidates for head of SBU position

Zelensky reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"I had a meeting with Vasyl Maliuk. I thanked him for his combat service and proposed that he focus on this line of work specifically. There must be more Ukrainian asymmetric operations against the occupier and the Russian state, and more solid results in eliminating the enemy. This is where Vasyl is at his strongest, and this is exactly what he will continue to do within the Security Service of Ukraine," Zelensky said.

He tasked Maliuk with making our asymmetric operations division the strongest in the world. "The necessary resources and political support are in place," Zelensky added.

He also noted that he discussed with Maliuk "potential candidates for appointment as a new Head of the Security Service of Ukraine."

As reported, today Vasyl Maliuk announced that he is stepping down as head of the Security Service of Ukraine.
