The new Minister of Defense of Ukraine was a former volunteer with a diploma of Oxford

81
Today Stepan Poltorak officially resigned as Minister of Defense of Ukraine. The Verkhovna Rada of the new convocation approved the new head of the military department "independent." Who became them?

The new Minister of Defense of Ukraine was a former volunteer with a diploma of Oxford




According to the latest information, Andrei Zagorodniuk became the new Minister of Defense of Ukraine. He is 44 years old. He has little experience in the Ministry of Defense, but far from in the military field. Zagorodniuk served as head of the design service for the reform of this very department.

In addition, it is known that Mr. Zagorodniuk previously engaged in the so-called volunteer activities (he assisted the Armed Forces of Ukraine from 2014 of the year), and also worked in the mining sector (Discovery Drilling Equipment Company).

It is noteworthy that, in addition to a diploma of higher education, Shevchenko University of Kyiv has Zagorodniuk diplomas from the University of Warwick and Oxford.

314 deputies from 450 voted for Zagorodniuk’s candidacy. Moreover, against - only 25. The question immediately arises, but how did the other people's deputies vote. It turns out that more than fifty people did not vote at all, the rest abstained.

Upon assuming the post of head of the Ministry of Defense, Zagorodniuk announced his priorities in the new post. According to him, he will continue reforms in the ministry. The newly made minister noted that he, in particular, will continue to transfer the Ukrainian army to "real NATO standards."

Zagorodniuk:
APU should be an order of magnitude stronger and more prepared than the enemy.

        About "boilers" are usually written by those who are not familiar with the army, from the word in general. In Debaltsevo, for example, the losses of the attacking side went through the roof 1: 7. There is nothing to say about Izvarino, here the "north wind" ruined all the plans of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

          For some reason, this question often pops up.


          Probably because writers borrow terms from science for greater importance. "Integrate, differentiated, median, entropy, etc." This is not counting the new fashion for English words. Let them use it, but at least not distort the real meaning. For example, a differential is a tiny difference tending to zero. And in the phrase "differentiated approach" they already mean "special approach". Entropy has become synonymous with chaos, although it has nothing to do with either chaos or order, but just the Boltzmann constant multiplied by the weight coefficient (probability) Well, say so. The Russian language is rich enough to write "hollow" instead of "troll"

            I think the word order, as the definition of a rank in a number, also came from the language, and in the decimal system, the number I means ten times.
            The word differential in mathematics and mechanics means completely different concepts, and electricians have differential protection - another, just the word is clearly foreign, and when it got into Russian, some nuances of use and translation were lost, so the connection between different uses of the word is not obvious to us.

              in a frequently used combination, the word "differentiated" most likely means stepwise, segmented. And according to Wiktionary, it comes from the Latin "differentiare" (different). To be honest, I myself often use this word with exactly the same meaning. hi

              and electricians have differential protection-


              Just for electricians, differential protection (difavtomat or only RCD) in almost the correct meaning is a device that detects the minimum difference in the outgoing and returning currents in comparison with the current value. For example, the "leakage" current is 30 milliamps versus 40 amperes in the load. wink .

                For electricians, a differential relay is simply a device that triggers when the current difference in the two wires is different at a certain threshold value.
                For example, they use such a relay if it is necessary to control the integrity of two light bulbs, in car frames and others.
                If one burns out, there will be no current in the circuit.

          I have the originals, copied myself.
          Maybe it has changed below.
          Then there was no IFAC, quicklot, turnstile.
          These are a first-aid kit, a blood-groove and plaits.
          There were Canadian, with a rhombus-square. (Tension adjustment).
          But the basics are the same.

      Elena, here it’s not about the article that we are talking about in the comments, but about the general situation in the army. The article is a passing statement, and it is not discussed here. She is just a reason to talk.
      If someone is interested in my opinion, then appointing civilians to such a position is the path to the collapse of the army. If you have any objections, then look at the results of the work of our furniture maker and a German gynecologist.

        Stage. Like Ezhov under Stalin. He did the thing and put Kolya against the wall.
        Like Serdyukov, he cleaned the generals so that the Supreme did not fear conspiracies.
        What Ivanov did. The same gigantic moves, only less blood. Although Rokhlin and others .... there are questions.

    Strange, but the article did not mention much.

    In his speech before the vote, the future minister expressed the opinion that the Ukrainian armed forces are as strong as the personnel.

    “The main thing that needs to be done is to turn the state policy, which the Ministry of Defense should implement with the support of the government, facing a simple soldier. This should be number one priority, ”said Zagorodniuk.

    For the last three years, Andrei Zagorodniuk has been working in the Ministry of Defense as the head of the reform office, where he was involved in reforming the ministry and the armed forces. Until 2014, he was an absolutely civilian and had nothing to do with the army, except for training in the military department at the university.

      Shoigu has no chair :-)
      After fees and state fees, students take the oath. At the military unit. And this has to do with the army.

    "Oxword" is of course power! Where should we jump with "soveyskiy education". "Vata" is not "Ryazan" for you, it is "OXWORD". Cordially glad. (junior sergeant in the DRA, junior lieutenant in the SA of the USSR Armed Forces, and further along the knurled one). To me "to the lamb" that it "finished". As I understand it from the rhetoric, "there will be no peace"? It means "we will work, BROTHERS"!

    It seems like they write educated, but begins to engage in verbiage. If you use the expression "by an order", it means "ten times" and this expression comes from the arithmetic of primary classes. Well, the flag in his hands and a drum around his neck and at the head of the column going on an erotic journey on foot. I was dreaming. fool

    The new minister is a well-trained agent of influence with an Oxford diploma.

    Interestingly, in our government - is there at least someone with an Oxford diploma? I'm not talking about Shoigu - everything is clear with him))), but, for example, is Chubais there or Medvedev or Siluanov, Golikova, at least someone? You can’t steer the country with a veterinarian’s diploma, or is it possible?
