Fedorov and Alex Karp launch defense company
di Not A Newt: Mykhailo Fedorov
Mykhailo Fedorov left his post after Zelensky removed him, but now he's launching a defense startup with Palantir CEO Alex Karp as the first major investor. Karp says they've worked together for half a decade and called it a logical step given their history, noting how inspired he is by what Fedorov and Ukrainians have achieved. He praised the new venture for bringing knowledge of war as a product to allied countries. Yet if Palantir already handles most targeting operations in Ukraine, does this partnership create a conflict of interest? The question remains: what does this development actually mean for Ukraine?

We've worked together for a half decade. I've been absolutely inspired by what you and the Ukrainians have pulled off. I'm very and super delighted that we could play a part. You and your colleagues are launching a company that I think will be defining for the world, bringing your knowledge and acumen about the art of war as a product to allied countries. And to the extent I or we can help you, we'd be very proud to do that. Thank you very much. Take care.
