Kyiv • UNN
President Zelensky stated that he does not want to compare Commander-in-Chiefs Syrskyi and Zaluzhnyi, treating each with due respect as they do their jobs in their respective positions.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he does not want to compare Commander-in-Chiefs Oleksandr Syrskyy and Valeriy Zaluzhnyy. He said this during a press conference, an UNN correspondent reports.
Syrsky has a serious challenge. We have been waiting for weapons and the vote on the package for almost 8 months, and this is a very serious challenge. I don't want to compare Syrskyi and Zaluzhnyi, because I treat everyone with due respect. Everyone is doing or has done their job in their place
He added that it is difficult for him to assess what would have happened if the army leadership had not been changed.
These are postwar issues and conversations. We have to respect everyone. I don't believe that if anyone had been in Syrsky's position, there would not have been a corresponding breakthrough. It would have happened because the russians wanted it to happen. Syrsky knows Kharkiv, and this is a plus, he has been recapturing it
Recall
On February 8, President Zelensky appointed General Oleksandr Syrskyi as the new Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, replacing Valeriy Zaluzhny.
