there are some independent media, they highlight situations, corruption schemes, some unscrupulous citizens who flee abroad, who are now detained there, and this will happen, these are normal processes for a state in which there is a war, which is engaged in the struggle for independence, and if you take the percentage ratio, there are corruption schemes, and i talked with certain categories of people, officials, that now corruption... in the ministry of defense, in the ministry of internal affairs, that is, in the law enforcement agencies, is the lowest in history independence of ukraine. when some precedents arise and the mass media cover them, it shows the capacity of the media, the influence of the media, the influence of social networks, the raising of some social problem, an important problem for the army, for the formation of our state and defense capability, and then the state and the leadership of our states accepts some. either you already know it, or you don’t

accept it, and even now it might be redundant , let’s talk about the situation when dmytruk fled and the supreme commander initiated the meeting about this situation, that in two weeks there will be some kind of decision, er, when it was a month and a half ago, so in my opinion, maybe these decisions were made, but they were not made public, that is, i am talking about the fact that... we now everyone needs to communicate with each other, i, as a commander with personnel, the military-political leadership, the military, my subordinates and my citizens also need feedback. some situation has arisen, its solution should be discussed and not disseminated, someone may say that this is secret information, i understand all this, but we can say that we have made a decision, processes are now underway to improve this situation, we have gone deeper and the minister is there. or

the deputy minister, because the minister may be on some trips, to improve our influence there on the international arena, i understand all this, there are spokesmen, there are press officers who can communicate this with the citizens and with the military personnel of their country so that this situation is not hushed up and there was no heat of this situation and the russian federation did not use it, that is, any situation, or it is the szch, a serviceman who left and this show off or it is dmytruk who escaped, all this must be communicated and explained to every citizen that we see these processes, they are taking place, and that this does not affect the subsequent precedents for the voluntary abandonment of parts, we consider why he left, how we can analyze this situation, how we can improve it and that in the future it is not up to the commanders, here i can say, the command of units in such

a ... of a positive nature or a negative nature, we make a briefing from this situation and we look at what we can take from this situation that has arisen, how we can improve it and so that this does not happen in the future, you are now drawing a portrait of an ideal commander of any which link in fact, i.e. the importance of knowing, understanding what is happening in... the heads and souls of subordinates, and therefore already building a strategy for your behavior with these people, because you spend most of your life with them now, but i would also like to note , which, unfortunately, not always as of now, at least teams differ, let's call it general, but integrity, yes, that is, there are decisions that were deliberate. were adopted and

they were deliberately adopted in the wrong direction, could lead to tragic consequences, all this is also a normal manifestation of war, especially of such insane intensity. actually, at the beginning of the large-scale invasion, our higher military command was characterized by the fact that it allowed commanders on the ground of various branches to make decisions, that is, the moment of this delegation and reason. what a person on the ground sees and understands and we trust this person, it was, is it now and is there not, let's say , a reverse process, when the commanders are perhaps hostages, of the old school, let's call it that, and somewhere they are afraid to raise the problematic issues of your unit, which one they... relatively speaking are currently leading, do

we generally have a problem with commanders as of now in the ukrainian army? uh, you know, the problem of commanders is... it's a question of whether our teams are the same now my age, battalion commanders who directly make decisions on the battlefield, there are older ones, there are younger ones, this is about combatants right now, on the battlefield, decisions have to be made very quickly, as you rightly say, they can be wrong , because the intensity of hostilities is very high, the enemy uses reconnaissance in large numbers. its means, e.e., military weapons and equipment and a large amount of ammunition and a large number of personnel conducting assault operations. commander a battalion with a company commander who is working, they make decisions at their level, that is, the battalion commander is assigned fire means

that are included there in the battalion tactical group or simply in the line battalion, and they make decisions there, when to introduce reserves, what means to use, use commanders at your level. their firepower, their reserves, that is, it happens because, for example, we take battalion commanders there from our military unit of the rubizh offensive guards brigade, then they all passed rank, if not the platoon commander, then perhaps they were even sergeants, rod teams were sergeants, they performed tasks, they were riflemen, grenade launchers, machine gunners, and more promising, they then the career ladder allows them, and they are what there is a platoon commander , peace commander. go to battalion management, they understand how these processes take place from below, these teams understand how scary it is to be in a trench when the enemy storms you, but you have to take action, you have to fight back, because if you, you know, there is such the situation is very simple, you are standing in

a position and it is scary to watch, but you don’t see that landing, you don’t see the enemy, you just crouch down and you feel so much more, you know, on some subconscious level, calmer, but when you understand that if you you will not do this, they will come and kill you, or they will take you prisoner, or they will kill your brothers, and you do it, you are afraid, you do it, and you understand, you see the enemy, you enter into him in a shooting battle, you destroy him, and you know it, a shooting battle now sounds very exciting, that's personally me and the personnel, because in order to conduct a shooting battle, you have to survive a lot of artillery shelling, a lot of raids in fpv and drones with a skid, that is, it is very difficult, and these battalion teams, these company teams. at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, they were just personnel who carried out the task, and when they rise, they want to make the right decisions, and for example, regarding the national guard of ukraine, i want to say, personally, who, whom should i

fear, that is, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow i will go to line of combat collision and me, if a guided aerial bomb from... a chickpea from a plane from the territory of the russian federation does not kill me, or i will be killed by an fpv, or somewhere i will have to go on a reconnaissance and i will be killed there by some arlan, who i will be seen and killed by the krasnopol artillery system, that is, it can happen, and it can happen to anyone, to the brigade commander, because it is primarily these means that detect, destroy ksprigada, so that there is a loss of leadership. there are many competent battalion commanders and rod commanders, and for example, in our unit, i do not see a critical situation regarding incompetent commanders, because you know, the entire infrastructure of the national guard of ukraine, we are such a closed military formation with

many functions, protection of important state facilities, patrolling of territories, mass measures, at which representatives of the national guard of ukraine are also present, i want to... say that i started my service in the 14th year in the 50th regiment, which is based in ivano-frankivsk region, and those servicemen who guard burshtynsk tess or patrol train stations in ivano-frankivsk, they fought for our independence six months ago in the serebryam forest, and these companies, sergeants, soldiers, they lost their comrades, they saw the enemy in the sights of their small arms, they destroyed him and for... they returned to the rotation there, someone was injured, they are now engaged in that patrol, and i really, well, to be honest, i was going here, i thought about it, i am very proud of the fact that i am serving in the national guard of ukraine, because from us, if soldiers or officers somewhere are transferred, they are transferred either to the security service of ukraine or to the main

intelligence agency, because there are prospects there, someone understands that he is better at this or that, and we have our own academy that trains officers, and... many officers, commanders of brigades with injuries are sent to that academy, who later teach our future officers their experience, that is, this experience is analyzed. and such processes are taking place, so in some areas, in very important areas, up to there, for example the pokrovsky direction, to which all the attention of the ukrainian society is attached there, we are watching, we are losing, as you said, the situation there is very difficult, and units of the national guard of ukraine are also deployed there, and maybe someone wants to improve the situation with some vision of his own and goes down to the bottom there. from their seats in kyiv and wants to help there, and you know, well, i

hope that the people who go down to that level and give instructions there to brigade commanders, battalion commanders, they honestly and from the bottom of their hearts want to help, just there are many situations and mr. krotevych raises the issue of the release of sodol, and there are many others and... as i said, this is also the same process as with corruption, that is, we are all people, military personnel, the armed forces, the national guard of ukraine, these are ordinary citizens , which you can meet in the subway, in the cinema, in any cafe, or in the same cafe as we are sitting with you now, in short, some of them are unpleasant, this is normal, as ukrainian society, none of us not 100% cool, i just can't say that, i can afford it, but that's me i understand what you mean, especially... when we live in a world of total direct ether, sometimes there is so much of it that it seems to us that

all we see is, you know, all this is our planet, and it is everywhere , and this happens absolutely 100%, although we have to understand that journalists always tell individual stories that can definitely indicate some trends, but that is why we tell about them, so that it does not turn into a trend, but okay, me. .. i actually wanted to ask, are you a hero of ukraine, but were thinking about whether you should have taken gold star right? er, that was the situation in june of '22, you know, the day there was such that if you lived to lunch, that's good, if you survived that day, that's generally cool, and looking at some material values, merits, i had personnel when i was kicked out... when the ksp of the rubizh tactical grouping will be informed that the supreme

commander-in-chief of our ksp may or may not be there, and i want to present you with the title of hero of ukraine with the award of the golden star. i say, what is the order of the golden star, i have guys there in positions, i took some water, took some food and went back to the platoon base, because there were constant assaults, it was then, we were in the middle of siverodonetsk and... the enemy wanted to destroy the bridges, the enemy wanted to break through, that is, in any way there was constantly air raids, constant artillery strikes, constant strikes by tanks, i.e. by armored groups, which attacked simply our platoon company strongholds, the battalion lines of defense there, it happened along the entire line of our contact in the settlement of severodonetsk, and i simply did not have time, i didn't think about it, i had to go back, just to get out of the pivot point. to get to the command post of the tactical group, it was necessary to carry out a special operation in which you

could be killed, there you had to run under artillery fire, then you had to run over under enemy machine gun fire, that is, it was a very difficult situation, you had problems with logistics, problems with logistics, and taking into account all this, i simply did not see the expediency in presenting any awards at that stage of the conduct of hostilities by me personally, my personnel, and we... it was not important at all, that is, i have, i have an area for which i am responsible, and for me there were very important processes that were taking place, and i did not want to leave there for a minute , not for an hour, because i'm leaving my personnel, i'm leaving units left, right without intelligence, that is, these were the difficulties, and in my opinion at that time there were many servicemen who deserved this distinction more than i, and therefore i refused, said that i did not want her to receive, i'm going to... personnel, i was persuaded by the brigade commander, he didn't persuade, well, he communicated, caused

psychological pressure on me due to his official duties, the commander of the tactical group, and my comrades, when they said: yes, commander, you are worthy , you have to take, take everything, and then i stayed and got the title, thank you for that, for what you got then, and for the fact that i now have the opportunity to talk with you about this, in particular, and 8 o'clock has come. of a large-scale invasion of guest houses, the importance of the airfield and understanding why it was so oriented the russians, it is not a secret for anyone now, well at least for people who are interested in our war, that the russians needed this site in order to land their military transport planes with everything they need in the future, and already to develop the resource that should have dealt with the occupation of our capital, but this was avoided, thanks to you and your comrades,

you called the first 8 hours in your other interviews decisive, and ukraine correctly used this time. was mobilized, were there during these 2.5 years for you other such peak moments that you at least saw for yourself, which we took advantage of and actually had some fruits, and maybe peak moments that we missed, you know, those 8 hours, in fact, as i said in past interviews, they were very important. for our citizens, a full-scale invasion began as a war, its enemy attacked us in the morning, struck by surprise, and i understood that these our citizens can have troops all day, there the general headquarters, the national guard of ukraine can mobilize, plan and everything. we have as servicemen to fulfill their duty,

to restrain the enemy, possibly to die, and everyone in me was ready to die, we were then. in the luhansk region, our part of the military personnel, the military part was in gostomel, and these military personnel, you know, this was such a unity between all commanders and all personnel of the defense and security forces of ukraine that everyone understood, now or never, and the defense and security forces of ukraine , they performed their function and held out, restrained a colossal amount of enemy aircraft, because serhiy falatiuk is there, at the gostomil airfield. shot down helicopters that came in, and he was there with the conscripts of our military unit, they restrained the enemy, and this happened along our entire line of combat and along the entire border with the russian federation, that is, every commander completed these tasks, and you know, in the future, more of this i may not have felt a significant, more weighty, social unity for

2.5 years, then there was a path, you know, the path we were walking. there were obstacles somewhere, a certain number of military personnel, it will continue united by this common thought that began at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, that is, this unity, and my personnel, the military personnel with whom i met, we continue to communicate, and no one is ready or willing to leave the defense and security forces, these are my fellow airborne assault troops, military commanders. troops, tank formations, intelligence units, the sbu, the band, that is, everyone, i know, met many strong, worthy servicemen, servicemen of the defense forces of ukraine, and this unity still holds, there are situations that we took advantage of and that will be in the future,

this is the defensive operation in kurshchyna, a situation that did not work out for us, this is our... counteroffensive in the south of ukraine, that is, you know, there are many such situations, and the situation of the greatest tragedy, and perhaps the greatest joy, can happen in a small area, let's take the zaporozhye direction there, any direction, the lyman direction, the biggest tragedy can happen when a bullet fired by some russian soldier kills someone's son, someone's daughter, someone's father, someone's sister. this will be the greatest tragedy on our planet, for the family, for our nation, for our state, because our citizen died, who should live and advance our country into the future, into our prosperous future, and this situation, they are for many citizens, they are special, because that's when i was, you know, these situations

are the most difficult, when you attend a funeral, or you are informed ... that someone died, and there was a recent time when we were burying a scout from our military unit, yegor, and i was handing out flags in the words of the president of ukraine, the supreme commander-in-chief, i ask you to accept this flag as a symbol of the state, which your son served faithfully and to the end, and when the mother began to sob and cry, and she accepts this flag. and she understands that our struggle continues, she lost her son, but she did not lose the country, and my voice hurts, sometimes i say, she did not lose the country, and this unity in... it still exists in us, and we unite in such difficult critical situations, and this critical situation is also ours until now, because as we talked with you at the beginning, when the enemy hits the

ivat publishing house in kharkiv, he destroys our books, he destroys our culture, when he hits institutes, when he hits schools, he wants to destroy our intellectual component so that we do not develop, but our citizens continue to print books in the ukrainian language. write poems, develop new means of rap, develop new uavs that can burn warehouses in the depths of the russian federation, and new citizens are also joining, who are carrying out a security operation in kurshchyna, er, the same ones who have already been fighting for 2.5 years, they are losing their health, and they are not going to the szz, and they will continue to fight in the pokrovsky direction, and we have enough strong citizens and enough strength, motivation to oppose the russians. federation and in the future. thank you for this conversation. i will remind our viewers that we had the opportunity to talk with vitaly lytvyn, a hero of ukraine. an officer of the national guard of ukraine,
