"Best in the World": Military experts named the strongest sides of the Ukrainian Army (video)

Australian retired General Mick Ryan praised Ukrainian territorial defense forces and command for the organization of the International Legion. The Ukrainian army is now the strongest in the world. This opinion was expressed by Major-General of the Australian Army resignated by Mick Ryan by the publication of Kyiv Post. "This is the best army in the world. They are the most experienced in the present war, they have shown it over the last 13 months," he said.

Ryan also stated that the Armed Forces of Ukraine "spilled a lot of blood" and were able to learn many important lessons. Many armies have something to learn from Ukrainians. For example, how to use anti -tank weapons, as well as non -peeling for reconnaissance and adjustment of artillery. The Australian military praised the forces of Ukraine's territorial defense. He stated that it was a professional army, which consists of old soldiers who already have experience of fighting in the Donbass.

Ryan praised the Ukrainian command for gathering foreign troops together (international TRI). According to him, for any army it is a big problem, especially during the active phase of war. Senior Advisor to the International Security Program of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Mark Kanchian, stated in a comment on Newsweek that Ryan is right when he focuses on the human factor in the war.

The expert is convinced that the Armed Forces is fighting better than the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, but he disagrees with the thesis about the "Best Army in the world". "Most Ukrainian commanders proved to be highly skilled on the battlefield, but it is likely that he lacks the depth of preparation necessary for the implementation of complex joint maneuvers," Kancian said. Earlier, journalists reported that the wounded Ukrainian fighters had shared details of Bakhmut's battle.
