The battle of "Soviet" and the new generation. By whom to replace the "old" generals and whether anarchy is threatened by the Armed Forces

The Verkhovna Rada is accused of old temper generals for inability to solve problems in the army. Suicide tasks are distributed to soldiers only for reporting. Focus spoke with military experts to find out whether high -ranking commanders operate effectively and whether they should be criticized during the Great War. The Soviet generals, known for indifference to the lives of soldiers and rigid orders, have firmly settled in the system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The style of their management has brought the situation to a critical level, which is why the Russian troops are moving on the front line, the Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence, People's Deputy Marian Bezugla, said in an interview with The Times. "We have a degraded and hybrid version of Soviet region with corruption and nepotism. One of the main problems of Soviet generals is their disrespect for truth.

When something bad happens, they try to hide it. If you talk about real problems, you get under pressure," the People's Deputy explains the problem. The commissioners gave the soldiers suicide tasks only for reports on attempts to return the territories captured by Russian troops.

The story of the united forces of the Armed Forces and the operational-strategic group of Khortytsa troops Yuri Sodole was revealed by the commander of the Joint Forces of the Armed Forces and the operational-strategic group of the Khortytsa troops. During the breakthrough of the army of the Russian Federation to Toretsk, according to Bezsloya, the commander "drank in the restaurant" Zablokaka "in Odessa.

The "battle" of different generations in the army is also said by the military-Aer intelligence officer, exNArdep Igor Lutsenko. It is not about age, but about the mentality, it is not necessary to fight for tactical or strategic goals, but for a fundamental chance of defense forces to succeed. "It is the struggle of two cultures. One came to us through Russia - coercion and repression, tyranny of one leader and lawlessness of the rest.

The other is ours and privately western when the country is the territory of a contract of free people when war is a matter of personal choice," - - - He notes. "Old" warlords should be replaced by brigade commanders who have combat experience since 2014. All of them should be the future forces of Ukraine's defense, but they were staged by a "glass ceiling", says Mariana Bezugla.

According to her, before the start of a full -scale invasion of Russia, the cooperation of the West with the Ukrainian army was surface and did not lead to the necessary structural reforms. This state of affairs was convenient for all parties. "They conducted some training courses, stated NATO standards, but almost nothing has changed. Weapons and ammunition - priority for the Armed Forces, without them it would not exist.

NATO should be more insisted on changes in the system [Armed Forces]," she shares. Igor Lutsenko also believes that the war with Russia, which began in 2014, gave rise to excellent and effective military leaders, but "scoundrels who have shown themselves on the worst side, took revenge and they define the order in the Armed Forces.

" "Young (not always with age, but always soul) people seek to fight and win, old (often only by outlook, not years) want to stay in positions and command subordinates at all costs. In particular, the price of our victory," the military said. The Army Management System is one of the most complex systems, to evaluate the moral and business and professional qualities of a general and commander of any level is necessary personally.

To hang the "Soviet" label in all in a row - not the way to find the truth, says in a conversation with focus a colonel of reserve, an expector of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Vladislav Seleznev. "Much on the front depends on the understanding of the situation and the ability to organize subordinate forces and means. The assessment of each military leader often consists of how much the military is willing to follow him.

One of the generals - as a father for a soldier, others afford a terrible attitude", " The colonel thinks. An example of a new generation leader, in his opinion, is Vasyl Zubanych born in 1983. He made his career after the war in the Donbass 2014, commanded the 10th separate mining brigade by November 27, 2020. He also created a wave of negativity around him: Bezlag wrote that in the military circles Zubanich gained the glory of "bloody celebrity".

"At one time he failed the defense of Kharkiv region in 2022, then - Lisichansk, then directed the key direction of the southern counter -offensive in 2023: all stories about the disposal of Bradley and storming people of fortifications and mine field Again after a small pause he received an equivalent position, "she said.

At the same time, according to Seleznev, 59-year-old chief inspector of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and the former commander of the Navy Igor Voronchenko in the General's rank for more than 10 years, but he is considered a good professional. "It is always necessary to look at military performance. There is a danger of criticism of military command in a great war.

Military expert Dmitry Snegirev warns against discussing the Institute of Subordination and Orders in the Army, as there is a risk of disorganization. Discussions in the generality distracting public attention from total corruption in the construction of fortifications in eastern Ukraine. The responsibility for the failure on the front in the future can be transferred to the shoulders of the military, so a number of generals appear in problematic affairs, adds the analyst.

"The replacement of the Higher Commanders on the Principles of the Civil War of 1917-1921, when the expediency of the appointment was resolved by the Red Guard Soldier's Council, it is complete nonsense. The precedent is dangerous, it will end with the introduction of the Red Army Commissioners Institute," Snegireov said. The commissioner was appointed to the unit, part, connection or crew. He played the role of a special representative from the political leadership or ruling party of the country.

The commissioner conducted political supervision of military command and personnel. "If you need a victory over the enemy, the orders are not discussed. But in the case of the task of disorganization of the army, one can call into question and criticize the actions of the highest military authorities, discuss the feasibility of orders," - summed up the expert.
