"The enemy should be respected": Zaluzhny spoke about the chief of the General Staff of the Russian Federation Gerasimov
Zaluzhny confessed that he was constantly studying Gerasimov's publications and is interested in his opinion as a military one. "There is one person in Russia, one commander I read, I am interested in his opinion as a military," the commander -in -chief said. In his opinion, Ukrainian servicemen need to understand that Gerasimov is a strong enemy, which should be "respected for the sake of victory. " "He is strong, he is insidious, he is unpredictable. In short, it is a strong enemy to be respected.
Even respect for the sake of victory," Zaluzhny said. During the conversation of Zaluzhny, they were asked to comment on the statement of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who in February called Ukrainian soldiers to take power into their own hands. In this regard, the Ukrainian commander -in -chief said that he was not personally interested in his speech or his statements. "It didn't concern me, so I just don't pay attention to it," the warlord replied.
It should be noted that in an interview with the British newspaper Time in September last year he admitted that he grew up in the Russian military doctrine, and Gerasimova considers the smartest of people. In his office, the Ukrainian commander -in -chief still preserves the collection of works of the Russian general. Recall that the Commander -in -Chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny compared the war in Ukraine with the events of the First and Second World Wars.
