“The enemy is trying to perform active actions throughout the front line, so we have to concentrate our special units.
According to him, the main task will be to create an army that will be adapted to national conditions and experience, just as Israel does. "We will most likely build an army and prepare on the model, as in Israel, but given our national interests, experience, with our vision.
Pivnenko also stressed that the National Guard was originally created to protect critical infrastructure, patrols and checkpoints, but now its role has expanded. "Now all the components of the defense forces are performing the main task - it is a repayment of armed aggression.
The commander also spoke about the recruitment process to the National Guard units. According to him, there is a special site for recruiting, advertising is actively working, and part of the people is provided by the General Staff. "The number of people who go to our units has increased four times.
