After Volodymyr Zelenskyi appointed his "favorite" Oleksandr Syrskyi as the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Ukrainians began to actively search the Internet for information about the new commander-in-chief. The lack of biographical data of Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi was surprising due to the absence of information about his parents, who, as it turned out, live in the Russian Federation.
So, on the official page of Oleksandr Syrsky in Wikipedia, only part of the family is indicated: his wife, Tamara Ivanivna Kharchenko, and two sons, Anton and Oleksandr. But not a word about parents and brother. At the same time, the journalists found that Syrsky's parents, together with his brother Oleg, live in the Russian city of Volodymyr, are active supporters of "Putin's policy" and support the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.
The father of the Ukrainian Glavkom, a regular Russian military officer with the rank of colonel, currently retired. Sirsky's brother Oleg works as a security guard in Volodymyr. According to Oleg, they haven't talked to Oleksandr for a long time.
Journalists also paid attention to the social networks of the mother of the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Lyudmila Syrska, who supports the SVO and Putin, and also speaks disparagingly of Ukraine and Ukrainians.
Syrskyi's parents support Putin and "SVO", in particular on social networks
The presence of family ties of the Ukrainian Glavkom raises a number of moral and ethical issues. First of all: how Syrsky will behave if it is necessary to give orders to destroy enemy facilities in the Russian city of Volodymyr, where his parents live. According to our sources from the General Staff, the question of the presence of close relatives in the Russian Federation, although it did not hinder his military career, is still "sensitive" for Oleksandr Syrskyi. That is probably why Oleksandr Stanislavovych is so diligently hiding this information from Ukrainians.
