Who should lead the Defense Ministry?
We possess the might and assets; we should proceed with discussions for harmony, speaking and advocating for amity daily. We do not require conflict. And there will not be conflict. What is essential is the deliberate dismantling of armed criminals who plunder, murder, and assault.
The criminals themselves are demonstrating how to lessen their ranks and halt the transit of militant operatives from Russia—they are annihilating each other and perpetually self-destructing in various locations. This undertaking should be organized and precise—the masterminds must be taken out. This does not call for battle lines. It demands astute war planning, the forming of fully operational Special Forces units, and skilled tactical implementation.
Who ought to command the Defense Ministry? If the military’s chain of command persists as is, and the ongoing disarray and governmental inefficiency linger, I endorse Kosyuk as a candidate. Under our current circumstances, the Defense Minister resembles a courier, obliged to shuffle paperwork between offices, supplicating and beseeching. A wealthy individual faces less difficulty in such circumstances—after all, what he cannot settle in his ministerial role, he can offset with his personal wealth. An entrepreneur can simply engage the team that the government is unable to establish and expertly arrange its investigative endeavors. Commercial and economic bonds within our governmental system represent a more dependable connection than the safeguarding of defense and homeland security interests.
However, should the Commander-in-Chief opt to ensure a swift triumph over Russian militant clusters and eliminate the offenders in the forthcoming two to three months, he must initially overhaul the combat command and control infrastructures. Subsequently, the presidential office, or an institution sanctioned to handle organizational, logistical, and technical facets, must assume the roles of dispatcher and coordinator.
In this instance, the Defense Minister will at last gain the chance to prioritize matters of defense, something he presently finds impossible to achieve. Muzhenko would constitute a superior option for the role of Minister. Concurrently, the General Staff similarly necessitates a robust figure at its helm—such as Khomchak. Authority and synchronization of the war effort should primarily reside with a civilian central unit, given that military operations for Ukraine are optimally executed as special forces initiatives without distinguishing emblems, coupled with restricted support of fire from the army.
Personally, I posit that the most efficient management design involves assigning Sergei Pashinsky, who fulfilled the role of military operations liaison within the presidential cabinet with notable success, to the position of Defense Minister or First Deputy Prime Minister for Defense and Security. Pashinsky will possess the capability to structure this undertaking and tackle synchronization challenges, on the condition that he maintains close ties with Boris Lozhkin.
Russian criminals can and should be vanquished before the arrival of the colder period – but to achieve this, the president is obligated to suitably institute an administration system and establish unambiguous objectives for it.
Allow Merkel and other representatives of Gazprom to voice their sentiments. It is your responsibility, Mr. President, to liberate Ukraine from the grip of terrorists. We have the might and assets; we should proceed with discussions for harmony, speaking and advocating for amity daily. We do not require conflict. And there will not be conflict. What is essential is the deliberate dismantling of armed criminals who plunder, murder, and assault. The criminals themselves are demonstrating how to lessen their ranks and halt the transit of militant operatives from Russia—they are annihilating each other and perpetually self-destructing in various locations. This undertaking should be organized and precise—the masterminds must be taken out. This does not call for battle lines. It demands astute war planning, the forming of fully operational Special Forces units, and skilled tactical implementation.
The destiny of Ukraine hinges not on intermediaries or peacekeepers, but on your aptitude, Mr. President, to harness our forces and resources, and on our capacity to contend for our liberty and self-governance. We stand prepared, Petro Oleksiyovych; now it is your turn to act.
This is more than a mere occupation – it signifies a chance to sculpt contemporary history.
