Battlefield 5 steps down3/16/2024 ![]() Therefore, to expect some sharp movement. Hrabskyi: Staying with our naval metaphor: was General Syrskyi part of the team that performed combat tasks, was he on that ship, on that captain’s bridge? Yes, he was one of the team members and he took over the helm. Read also: With Syrskyi now Commander-in-Chief, who is Zelenskyy considering as new Armed Forces Commander? NV: How abrupt was the dismissal of Zaluzhnyi and the appointment of Syrskyi? If we even see any changes, it will be in the long run, after a rather long period. The military, if we can compare it to a ship, is quite a big vessel and making sudden movements can be very dangerous. Therefore, I wouldn’t recommend waiting for some revolutionary changes. It all depends on how committed the army and the state are to hold their ground. For now, it’s necessary to show stability, endurance, and steadfastness of our positions in defense.ĭefense is a specific type of combat with special creativity. That is, we could only see a difference during some large-scale offensive operations. They’re determined by the objectives that have been set, namely, to hold on and prevent the enemy from breaking through. Hrabskyi: I’m afraid we won’t experience a quick leadership change because the specifics of these combat tasks that we perform (defense tasks), they’re quite simple.

It’s impossible that we had no plan at all. We need to give the person time to get to the bottom of things, perhaps to clarify certain tasks for the troops, and then we’ll look at the result. Perhaps the president had in mind some proposals for introducing clarifications to that plan. Strategic defense also involves certain stages of planning and implementation of strategic defense measures. Sometime in November 2023, there was talk of switching to strategic defense. That is, such a plan exists, and that’s why I share your bewilderment. Because, as you can see, we’re already in February 2024, while plans for combat training and other plans were drawn up even before the end of last year. So did we not have such a plan before, or the president simply didn’t like it? He said that he wants to see a realistic and detailed plan for 2024, considering the real situation on the battlefield and our prospects. NV: The president has published a list of what he expects from the Armed Forces after Syrskyi’s appointment. Because the uncertainty, which cost us quite a lot and lasted for a month, when there were talks about the probable dismissal, affected the fighting spirit and morale. The only thing I can say is what I heard from the soldiers: thank God that they decided on this, on what and how it will be. Of course, like any person, both General Zaluzhnyi and General Syrskyi have positive and negative sides.

The army is a state tool to protect our country. Hrabskyi: There is such a misconception that the army represents a political force, that personal opinions of service members can be considered some kind of position pf the entire military. ![]() These are the primary tasks that General Syrskyi will have to face. Therefore, we’ll have the same battles as we need to accumulate resources and hold the line. This won’t happen since war has its own rules, its own norms, and the sequence of actions. Accordingly, we cannot expect any drastic changes. He was part of what was happening during that time. Should we expect drastic changes at the front? I wouldn’t expect this as we must understand that General Syrskyi has been at the front for two years and has been fighting the same way. The war will continue, and the task of our entire state is to resist this aggression in the future. The only thing I can say is that the war won’t stop from this.
