"With concrete you do not overcome": the Armed Forces emphasize on the construction of fortifications at the front - expert

According to military expert Petro Chernyk, since the beginning of 2024, the Cabinet has allocated UAH 20 billion for the construction of fortifications. In Ukraine, work is underway to create fortifications. This process is a complex and great task, but in this area there is a noticeable progress. This was reported by the military expert and colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Petro Chernik in a comment to the "Channel 24".

According to him, there are many different manipulations around this issue. In particular, the state is often accused of not having created proper fortifications as early as 2023. "This is a discussion issue. In 2023, Ukraine has fully relied on a counter -offensive. According to Chernyk, some people express the opinion that construction firms should be sent to the forefront to create defense structures, which, in his opinion, is an absurd. According to all standards, tanks should create infantry.

Operational support forces can be involved in the following defense lines. "With a concrete on the first line you do not overwhelm. The technique that should pour concrete will not be able to approach the trench, because it will simply be destroyed. But for 8-9-10 kilometers, where other lines will already And it is done, "Chernyk said. He noted that since the beginning of 2024, the Cabinet has allocated UAH 20 billion for the construction of fortifications.

According to these data, the Kharkiv region received the most funding - almost 4 billion. This seems justified because the occupiers are obviously intended to attack Kharkiv. "Kharkiv region" sits in the enemy "as a rolling pin in the eye. They dream of kharkov to hit. Therefore, the strengthening of the border in the engineering sense is good. It is not only about before and doz. by means of alarm. It is a well -balanced and correct step to strengthen the territory, "Chernyk emphasized.
