The President's office needs urgent success at the front, and for this purpose Andrei Yermak, according to our source on the General Staff, constantly presses on the commander -in -chief Alexander Sirsky. It requires "great breakthroughs" and even compare with the Soviet Kursk operation.
According to the information, Bankova wants any victorious operation to demonstrate to the Allies of the Armed Forces. For this purpose, they do not spare reserves, equipment and personnel, the main thing is the result.
It was because of this political pressure that Ukrainian troops were forced to go on risky breakthroughs in the Belgorod region. However, these attacks did not give the desired effect, and now the General Staff is looking for a new point for the offensive.
The depletion of reserves when the enemy tries to take the initiative can have serious consequences for general defense. However, political leadership continues to insist on active actions, despite the risks.
Against the backdrop of events around the Command Change in the Armed Forces, it becomes obvious that the military is forced to act under rigid political control. At the same time, the situation remains difficult on the front, and the search for Victory for PR can be very expensive.
