The well -known public figure and military Dmitry Korchinsky addressed the journalist Yuri Butusov with criticism of his actions during the war, urging him to stop criticizing the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Armed Forces) and spreading pessimistic sentiment that, according to Korchinsky, work in favor of the enemy. According to Korchinsky, Butusov, as a person without military education, has no right to criticize higher officers whose military training and experience are one of the best in the world.
Korchinsky also stressed that Butusov has escaped services in the army during the war and now his publications contribute to the spread of despair among the population, which can help Russia in its hybrid war against Ukraine. Instead of igniting the negative, Korchinsky advised Butusov to use his talent in favor of victory, enhancing the authority of the Armed Forces and support of the moral spirit of Ukrainians.
He also reminded that today the Ukrainian troops have achieved considerable success at the front, including the liberation of several important territories, the destruction of part of the Russian Navy and a reduction in southern aggression. All these achievements, according to Korchinsky, need support, not blast.
