Yevhen Khmara doesn’t understand what democratic civilian control is? In which direction is the movement going? That the war plan should come first from the Ministry of Defense, and the military should execute it? That the Armed Forces of Ukraine are an instrument of the Ministry of Defense, and the Minister of Defense is not the quartermaster of the Armed Forces? That he is politically responsible for whether there is an understanding of how to wage the war and whether the Armed Forces are suited to the nature of this war? How to achieve victory? For CONTROL?
Even while serving as acting minister, he already started speaking in generalities about the “needs of the front” instead of about a war plan and CONTROL by the Ministry of Defense. The “needs of the front” can be different: Skelya, tanks, outdated artillery, etc. If such requests are put on his desk, will he sign off?
And even if the new military leadership does not submit such proposals, various lobbyists’ wish-lists from defense companies can be disguised under “the needs of the front.”
Very sad. I will probably finally fall out with Yevhen Leonidovych. All that remains is for him to block me in messengers :)
Of course, I will not vote for him for the position of Minister of Defense. I consider such a vote to be mockery and a substitution of concepts.
