Mr. President,
I honestly don’t know what exactly you are being told, but I can tell you: the Pokrovsk-Konstyantynivka line is, without exaggeration, a complete mess. And this mess has been growing for a long time, getting worse every day.
Those commands that are now being appointed (or have already been appointed) to “fix the irreparable” are most likely to blame for the mess that is already happening. The line of combat contact as a permanent line does not actually exist.
Pokrovsk and Myrnograd are almost surrounded. Kostyantynivka is semi-encircled. The enemy is advancing in the direction of Kramatorsk and Druzhkivka.
The problem has been increasing since last year. They warned about this publicly, and that is exactly what happened. The cause of this problem is not the newly created corps, which inherited a failed situation with subordinate understaffed units, and not the OTU or OSUV, which for the past year and a half have actually not managed anything, but only transmitted orders “in accordance with the order from the General Staff”.
The systemic problem began with the elimination of reserves, the massive fragmentation of units along the entire front line, reports about the “taken village” as a victory against the backdrop of failures in entire directions, the distribution of mobilization resources to “godfathers”, as well as the absolute absence of a strategic and even operational vision of the theater of operations in parts of the military leadership.
I am an officer, and I have a concept of dignity. My conscience is clear. I have finished my report.
To all the officers who accepted the “rules of the game”, I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t understand you.
