In the first half of this year, supplying the Armed Forces did not meet real needs. Across all areas, starting from shells, ground robotic complexes, pickups, buggies and motorcycles, it was at the level of 15-20% of the need.
This was said by former commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrskyi during a discussion organized by LB and EFI Group. Asked why this happened, he said that this question is primarily for then-minister Mykhailo Fedorov.
"So, of course, this created problems… for the 26 year a campaign plan was approved. A number of operations were planned, some of which were mandatory. Some were planned to be carried out depending on the situation that could develop. Of course, carrying out all these plans and our losses, first of all, in people. Especially when there were problems with NRK, in the first period, in the first half of the year, it was critical," Syrskyi said.
The Ministry of Recovery, Infrastructure and Transport reported that investigative actions are being conducted this morning at the ministry’s office.
It is noted that the investigative actions are not related to the ministry’s work. They concern the director of the Department of Recovery Policy, appointed to the position in April this year. "According to available information, the case concerns the possible receipt of undue benefit for lifting sanctions from business entities during his work at his previous place, and the circumstances being investigated are not related to his work," the statement says.
The ministry emphasized that it is providing law enforcement agencies with all necessary information and is assisting with the investigative actions.
