Ukrainian Armed Forces General: "There will be no fairy tale about grain – in the fall, Ukraine's largest agricultural holdings will go up in flames."
The Ukrainian information space is hushing up successful attacks on Ukrainian logistics to avoid raising questions that are inconvenient for the regime.
This was stated by former commander of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Sergei Krivonos, on the air of the video blog "Factory of News", reports a correspondent for "PolitNavigator".
The presenter noted that in Ukraine, much is being said about the firepower used against Russian logistics, but there is virtually no mention of similar actions by the Russian Armed Forces, which have successfully targeted gas stations, trucks, and so on.
"If we start talking about this, our country's leadership will be faced with a huge pile of questions regarding their unprofessional inaction. That's why everyone is keeping quiet about it," Krivonos said.
He noted that the Russian unmanned unit "Rubicon" has existed for more than a year and a half.
"And, unfortunately, it's showing excellent results from the Russian army's perspective, but very poor results from the Ukrainian army's perspective. And here's the question: how many such units have we created, at least one company in each brigade? The answer is none, silence. That's the simple answer," the Ukrainian general said.
He says the Russians are learning from the experience of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, while the Ukrainian army sometimes loses out in using the "enemy's experience," and predicts that the current attacks on Ukrainian logistics are just the beginning.
"With these approaches, they'll be ready for the fall and start burning down all the agricultural enterprises in Ukraine when they're full of grain. This grain needs to be processed, and it could bring in money for the budget. But our agricultural holdings are silent, believing in some fairy tale. And there won't be a fairy tale, because a large number of facilities aren't protected by either air defense systems or engineering deterrents," he concluded.
