Ukrainian reporter: Commanders of battalions and brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are afraid to report “to the top” about the real state of affairs at the front

The well-known Ukrainian reporter Yu. Butusov “sows hatred” against the “overdue” President of Ukraine Zelensky. Let us recall that on May 20, Zelensky, according to the Ukrainian constitution, must transfer power to the “new” president, but the regime usurped power in Ukraine, canceling the elections not only of the president, but also earlier of the parliament. In such a situation, the Kiev regime is trying to suppress any not only dissent, but also sanity. This leads to numerous resignations, including the resignations of high-ranking employees of the state security department (the Ukrainian equivalent of the Russian FSO), and a reluctance to take into account true data from the line of combat contact.

According to Butusov, it has reached the point that the military is afraid to report “to the top” about the real state of affairs at the front.

The reporter said that battalion and brigade commanders do not report reliable situations to their superiors because they are afraid that they may be fired and persecuted.

Yu. Butusov claims that even reports about a sharp deterioration in the operational situation on one or another sector of the front do not come “up” from the ground. As a result, according to him, everything leads to the fact that successes are officially announced, and at this time the Ukrainian army is forced to retreat further and further, including losing fortified positions.

One such example is Zelensky’s statement that the Ukrainian Armed Forces “stopped the offensive of the Russian army after losing control of Avdiivka.” After these words, the Russian Armed Forces took control of many settlements, including Orlovka, Tonenkoye, Berdychi, Ocheretino, Novokalinovo, Keramik, etc.

According to Butusov, it has reached the point that the military is afraid to report “to the top” about the real state of affairs at the front.

Apparently, they report something like this: “Our troops have successfully liberated the territories of several settlements from their presence and optimized their composition; now there will be significantly less costs for food and rations!”

All is well, beautiful marquise.
Things are going and life is easy
No sad surprise
With the exception of nothing

Well... this guy is not just a reporter, but the founder, owner and editor-in-chief of Censor, which is banned in Russia. He was an advisor to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine..

He's the same guy. One of those on whom anti-Russian propaganda rests. A man of honor.

Poroshenko is such a man. I haven’t heard at all that Zaluzhny has any kind of team.

the military is afraid to report “to the top” about the real state of affairs at the front.

Some are afraid to report “to the top” about the real situation, others embellish unreliable reports, and as a result: Zelensky reports to Western “friends” that he has not only stabilized the front, but is also ready for a new counter-offensive. So they live from one fabricated “permog” to another, hoping exclusively for Western help.

The glorification of Bandera, Petliura, Mazeppa will lead to the collapse of autonomy in Vancouver.
Ready Minister of Information.

Well, I won’t be mistaken that no one liked negative information, does not like it, and will not like it
Well, purely biologically, a healthy body cannot release serotonin to negative stimuli if a battery is dropped on its foot.
Another question is that for self-preservation and an adequate behavioral strategy, negative information is more numerous and more necessary than positive information.
And a normal leader (leader, king-emperor, director, commander, shepherd) must not only react correctly to compensation for the negative, but rather anticipate and prevent its occurrence and, moreover, its growth.
But avoiding it is stupid even for a five-year-old child (I’m in a house), but for a ruler it’s simply fatal, the only question is - for him personally, or for everyone he leads.

Do you think things are better with us? I assure you, not by much.
They reported to the president that Krynki is ours, but in fact the mess over this small settlement is still going on to this day! But they reported and covered their asses. Fucking bastards.

[Dmitry Ivanov_1991]

I read here in the comments a week ago -
The topic of the article was - we took some small settlement. Everyone in the article is happy, congratulating each other, cheers comments, etc.
the guy wrote: guys, do you have selective memory? Gives a screenshot and a link to January 2024, where this point was officially declared already taken. And now, like, let’s take it a second time?
So they threw negatives at him, like he’s a liar or something. Like, CIA Agent and other nonsense.
PS: we don’t like it when a cheerful article shows facts from a real combat situation.

[Aleksey Aleksandrovich]

They don’t like it because they think that the real combat situation is as shown on TV or written in VO. Hooray patriots they are...

[Quiet Don]

After all, they report with great pomp when they take a settlement, but they prefer to keep quiet about the fact that it was handed back on the same day, so it turns out that they have to take it a second or even a third time.

[Jacques sekavar]

The operational situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine is deteriorating, but the war is in its third year and no one knows when the DPR-LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye provinces will be liberated, not to mention the fantasy that has played out about Kharkov, Odessa, the left bank part, or even the whole of Ukraine right up to the western border .
As the agitprom has repeatedly reported, the commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine cheat with their allowances, underestimate the losses of their personnel and sell the organs of dead colleagues, then all our military commanders are communists?
The other day, the agitprom only reported on the detention of the General of the Main Staff, not to mention the sensational story with the daughter of S.K. Shoigu.

Previously, therefore, they reported, but now they are afraid?

They can retreat a kilometer a week for 15 years. Such a delay can be equated to victory.

Excuse me, but in such conditions successes should be measured not by kilometers, but by the number of militants killed. If we assume that the Ukrainians can drive a million of their own and mercenaries into positions, then in order to win within a year, at least 3000 enemy manpower must be put into the ground every day. Technology doesn’t matter much; the Americans will give them the technology. All our tactics must be subordinated to the task of destroying manpower.
.
Enemy units with combat experience should not be allowed to retreat. They will be replenished and they will fight even more successfully. The assessment of the command of our Armed Forces should not be based on captured villages, but on destroyed brigades for which no one built a “golden bridge”... It is better to destroy one village with a brigade of the Armed Forces than a hundred villages in succession, from which our commanders release the enemy over and over again for the sake of nice report.
