In the war with Russia, Ukraine applied the American concept of resistance - CNN
Video Doctrine Day is not designed to create or support the insurgent movement, its purpose is to create forces sanctioned by the government, which will perform actions against foreign occupiers in order to restore sovereignty. CNN writes that not only the Ukrainian military but also the civilian population of the country within the coordinated resistance of the Russian army.
Thus, at the beginning of a full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, the Ukrainian government created a website that explains different ways of resistance. The site describes ways of using non -violent actions, including a boycott of mass events, strikes and even ways of using humor and satire. The goal is to undermine the ability of the pro -Russian power to govern, reminding the population of the legitimate sovereignty of Ukraine.
In addition, the concept of resistance involves the use of Molotov cocktails, deliberate arson, the addition of chemicals to benzobaks for the sabotage of hostile vehicles, and calls for a wide campaign to exchange messages to prevent the spread of hostile messages and maintain the unity of the population. In particular, the video of Ukrainian tanks, often under pop music or hevi-metal, became viral, as well as the footage where Ukrainian soldiers save homeless animals.
It is noted that "intentionally or not, it becomes part of resistance, allowing Ukraine to form headlines in the Western media in its favor. " CNN also writes that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stands in the vanguard of resistance, who "with his night speeches and frequent international speeches does not allow the conflict to disappear from sight.
" Its visits to the leading news are covered by the world news, which provokes a wave of support from abroad and increases the supply of weapons and ammunition. "Ukrainians use all resources, as well as some rather unconventional means to undermine the armed forces of the Russian Federation . . .
It is simply amazing to watch that, despite the incredible loss of lives and victims, the will to resist and resist can do resistance," said General General retired Lieutenant Mark Schwartz, who was the commander of the special operations command in Europe during doctrine development. The retired colonel Kevin Stringer, who directed a group of developers of the operational concept of resistance, sees signs of its use in a series of recent explosions in Crimea.
